Ive thought about torrents but they require a paid vpn from what i know? I dont really want to pay, which is why im thinking about piracy because im not made of money and cant afford a vpn. Im just not sure if its possible to be safe and sail the seven seas all for free?

What would you advise i do? what did you do when starting out?

I2p

qBitTorrent in I2P only mode is free and safe.

It's slow and limited selection, but there's good stuff.

last i tried the trackers were dogwater. Waste of time unless you're looking for 3yo items.

There's plenty of new stuff on Postmaster, especially if it's big-budget or sci-fi leaning. But you're right, it can be difficult to find some media, especially if it's niche. For free, there's more being posted than can reasonably be watched or listened to.
