What makes y'all torrent instead of DDL? I read in the megathread that DDL is less likely to get you caught, but a lot of people on here seem to really enjoy torrenting and I must be completely clueless as to why. I'd like to have your insights

For me there's no "get caught", and many stuff are only available trough torrent, like some old/obscure movies (some could take a week to download), other only trough DDL like some UK TV shows.

Also for automate software like Radarr/Sonarr you only have torrents or nbz
