Things are available for years, no seeders required
Even the good indexers are free
No need to waste your time, bandwidth and/or space seeding
No need to worry about ratios
The list goes on
Torrents:
Better use a VPN or get dropped by your ISP
No seeders? 1 seeder? Come back tomorrow and you might have your file. Oh sorry, that seeder went offline
Want to find stuff? Better pay for a good indexer…
Oh, while you are paying for the privilege of a good indexer, you better keep your ratio up or they will ban you. You get to pay to supply them with storage and bandwidth. Yay
