Im honestly scared to get into pirating but some things are just way too overpriced. i know theres the piract bay and such sites but it requires torrecting and a vpn but i cant afford a vpn so is there like a direct downloads version of the pirete bay or a safer alternative? im looking to get a few peices of media by the way.
also how do you all store so much media without issues or getting into trouble? also am i aksing the wrong place by chance?
i know there is internet archive but i find it hard to find what you are looking for and kinda clunky.
thank you for the info also i plan to do manly books and movies/shows, also could you link me the megathread if i might ask or if you dont mind… also i will probrably use tor but idk if that is enough.
If you are using direct downloads you probably don’t even need Tor. You should avoid torrenting through Tor. It puts unnecessary strain a volunteer network
Try Libby for books. It’s not downloading them but you can use your library card for free ebooks and audiobooks
Hoopla is also great for books, especially audiobooks. Also legit, free and through your public library system (USA only)
