But to use torrents you have to use a VPN on top (preferably a paid one that is as anonymous as possible), or you get bent over and railed by either your ISP or the copyright holders.
Instead of paying for a VPN I can just pay for the legit service (in better quality and on demand).
The only other option I can somewhat safely use are direct downloads and streams (no seeding), but even without a VPN they are shoddy performance wise.
It has other limitations, like worse quality for example. But actually the biggest limitation is shoddy subtitles. Yes, you can add subtitles, but they are often off (timing wise).
I do like to watch movies and series in OV, but then switch on English subtitles when I’m watching alone, or German ones when I watch with family back home. Not an (easy) option with pirated movies :-/
If you complain about quality of pirated content its clear you haven’t actually pirated much. 1080 or 4K is easy to get. I am not even torrenting.
Subtitles, ok I give you that. You can always find a fitting one or just have to adjust timing but that is sometimes a bit of pain to find if it doesn’t come with the file.
Streaming through apps has terrible quality most of the time based on their server loads etc. Even with fastest internet steaming from Disney+ quality is shit most of the time. When I am torrenting, i can get a high quality print and can watch it without any issue or buffering. It takes a few minutes to download a few gb’s. I am from a third world country and the internet here is so fast to download movies in 5 minutes max.
Using vpn is only for a few countries that we can count in one hand. For most of us we have been pirating and downloading torrents for years without any issue. The amount of streaming service that we need to subscribe to have a decent content is far more costlier than getting a vpn. And also subscribing to real debrid or alldebrid accounts is more pocket friendly than subscribing to all these platforms. Can stream and download all contents at highest quality and also stream without buffering or other issues.

Uh no. Any streaming service for $10+ will have limitations on what is on there. Piracy does not have those limitations.

It has the limitation of terrible quality 99% of the time.

Just shows you’ve been going to the wrong places.
A VPN is $5. That’s half a streaming service, and most use more than one.
