Are direct download sites safer than torrenting and what can i do to make things as safe as possible without having to use something like a vpn? becasue there are a few movies and retro games im having a hard time finding so what can i do to be safe while trying to find the media i want?
Im not even sure if the pirates life is for me…
do i need to use real debrid or can i use a browser like tor and what sites might i use?
is there a free way to get started by chance?
Real debrid is not necessary unless you’re downloading from hosts that require a paid account for unlimited access. You can download from archive.org and other HTTP sites without worry. You don’t need tor, a vpn, real debrid, a seed box, or any other paid service people are suggesting here. Just stay away from torrents and you’ll be fine.
You dont have to use Real-debrid but it is recommend. Real debrid is a ddl service and Tor is a browser like chrome for those who really want privacy and anonmity, two different things. Plus tor is really slow when downloading. Regarding free to use, there are leech websites that leech off debrid services but do not allow torrenting or you can look for a trial version of a different debrid service or try a service like debrid-file.com that allow a lifetime subscription.
