Depends on your hardware.
Streaming is more accessible, but you’re stuck at 720p usually.
If you can afford a vpn and the storage then torrenting gets you better quality.
Don’t forget to seed
I find it easier to get 4k streaming than to download such large files.
The large files are such better quality, though (if you care about such things and have a TV that allows you to appreciate the extra detail).
For movies I will go the extra mile and break out Kodi and go with the big file as I will usually watch it right away and then delete it. For TV, 4k streaming is plenty good enough.
Agreed I do pretty much the same.
