I pay about $300 per year for an IPTV service that provides over 3000 channels which means all the news and sports I can think of. Also on demand TV and movies, and recordings of popular live sports. It allows 2 public IPs so I share this service with my brother. It's amazing. I've used a few different IPTV services that got shutdown and this one is the best. It's been about 2 years now which is about as long as I've seen these services last so I hope it doesn't get shut down anytime soon.
I'd rather just run my own service for my own use. I have a nas and I use vlc on my TV to watch anything I want. I'm currently working on grabbing all of the shows that I want to re-watch and are available in their entirety, homeland, the wire, Dr who, Archer, etc. I'll also be keeping an eye on the paramount and others for shows that look interesting and add them to my rss feed.
Look up radarr and sonarr. Automate all your downloads. You can torrent with it but usenet is much easier. Additionally set up a server with unraid and add all the apps to docker. You got yourself a media server. Add plex and all the other arr apps in there too.
