You can also torrent all movies. That way if you want to watch it again later on you don't need to download the whole thing again like you would with streaming. Streaming is really just downloading without saving.

Absolutely. The problem with torrenting is that it is less-accessible to laymen.

They need a VPN to torrent safely, which immediately cuts out most of them. They also need storage, which many of them do not know how to manage.
