RARBG shutting down left a huge hole for me and I can’t figure out what’s a good alternative for it other than 1337. Any suggestions?

ditch torrents. usenet is still alive and kicking

Usenet requires paying for a service though, right?

Cheaper than a vpn (usenet instead of vpn), better availability/more content, 70+mbps continuous downloads, no copyright claims.

Worth it. 6$/mo with Frugal Usenet + NZBGeek

I hear it isn't great for niche content. I don't want Barbie, I want Mars Needs Women, so I'm worried that isn't the option for me.

I've found more content to be available through usenet than public torrent trackers. The first two days of usenet instead of torrents I grabbed 2.8tb of content that I had been searching for via torrents and 15+ indexers. (content accumulated in Sonarr/Radarr that previously couldn't be found)

Theres currently one 2267 day old copy of Mars Needs Women available via NZBGeek that I just downloaded successfully.
