Quick start guide:
1. VPN, my recommendation: **mullvadVPN**. (You need this, because copyright trolls look for easy targets, such as people having their real IP exposed. You don't want to be that, they won't fight with the VPNs hosting partner, then with the VPN company, then with your ISP, just to get to you, they only extort people they can reach directly.)
2. Download **qBittorrent** (FOSS) and install ALL search plugins
3. Activate your VPN and search with the integrated search function, it will look through all sites you installed plugins for and present them to you directly in the programme.
4. Enjoy a collection of TV and movies you actually own.

There is a setting to bind qbittorrent to your vpn. PLEASE use this as using it without accidentally could get you in trouble. The binding is a last resort safety mechanism to prevent it from even working if the vpn is off.

I keep hearing conflicting info on mullvard and sailing, do they block port forwarding? Which may affect seeding to some places? Like private... sailing seas? I am a bit unsure how this works, but if I am sailing for linux distros, I want to be able to seed them.
