Depends on your country’s laws, but where I live you get busted for PROVIDING copyrighted material for download - not for downloading it. Unlike a torrent, you aren’t sharing with anyone else.

Couple years ago when I first set up Radarr, I found the same shit was on Usenet as the private trackers I was on, so I just stopped torrenting.
