Wow! I only realized now why the *arr software (radarr, sonarr, bazarr ...) are named like that despite using them for years.

Thanks for the epiphany.

I'm a bit old school with things like this.
I'd much rather avoid downloading a 4k rip and watching it offline.
But I'll be sure to avoid these sites, too, if I'm ever in the mood to watch something when I'm away from my 'linux iso storage and acquisition' machine.

It's not complicated. The Usenet provider gives you access to Usenet, and the indexer lets you search it for whatever you want. You then download it with a Usenet client. You can do it manually, much the same way as you download a torrent from any site. if you've downloaded a torrent before, you would be able to manage Usenet with no issues at all.

Or, if you're willing to spend a few hours setting up the Servarr apps on an old computer like I did, you can automate the whole thing. I recommend this option, because you do it once and then you have a seamless way to fetch files from torrent and Usenet both without ever doing anything more than typing in the name of the show/movie. The Servarr apps search for, download, and import media into my library so that I can stream them to all my devices using Jellyfin (or Plex, if you like corpo apps). They even fetch proper subtitles for everything, and I also have it set up so after I've watched an episode, it's deleted to make room for something else. It's as easy as Netflix, at a fraction of the cost.

What are you talking about? Of course I got the BIOS from my PS2 using a flash drive. Of course I manually backed up physical games I own. I would never illegally download.
