When you’re torrenting and you’re planning to watch with someone else, you decide what you’re watching at least eight hours in advance, preferably a day. Radarr can’t find stuff instantaneously, assuming the automated search finds it at all, and torrents can take hours to finish, plus leaving time to resolve technical mishaps with your *arr stack, like the VPN being dead. If you and the person you wanna watch with aren’t going to be in the same room, you’ll have to set aside even longer in order to transcode it into a format a browser can play at a bitrate that’s low enough to stream, and load it into your HTTP server so that Cytube can play it. Ideally you’d block out some time to troubleshoot Cytube too.
Amateur. You set this up ahead of time.

I have none of these issues, but I use Usenet soo…
Honestly though if push comes to shove Stremio and RealDebrid can work wonders provided your internet is actually fast enough.
Another vote for usenet. Somewhat less accessible than torrents but worth the effort and money.
Or just have a VPN on and go to fmovies or whatever to stream it for free since you’re already on a laptop with connection anyways.
This is a great example of why Netflix is still so profitable.
Most popular movies have enough seeders to finish in 20 minutes where I live.
But if I were in OP’s shoes, I would just turn to streaming and forego the slightly better quality.
The movie isn’t the most important thing at that point.
OP doesn’t pay for streaming on the hypothetical (because we all know this isn’t a real story lol).
