    Have a look at the **arr range of apps

    Sonarr and Radarr with NZBGet, usenet indexer and a cheap unlimited news server provider, and you’re laughing. I have everything downloading automagically as soon as its release, loads right into Jellyfin - all on a copyright notice keen ISP and never have any issues because im not sharing anything up, its all down with usenet

      I have been looking into this solution, I am concerned on whether it will need a VPN or not. I have one already, but it does not play nice with my current solution.

        The majority of countries, and the uk for sure, its not illegal to download content but it is illegal to upload it / share it. Therefore using usenet is fine to do, legally, without the aid of a VPN as you are merely consuming and not providing or uploading. I have been doing this for years with zero problem or letter from any of three isps i have been with the in last decade.

            You’re very welcome. I have a newsletter you can subscribe to if you’d like, though i should probably warn you it costs £5 a month and includes some advertising.

        I have all my services set up on a docker container that has a VPN Killswitch, so if the VPN ever drops for any reason my “activity” is disabled automatically until I can notice and fix it.

        It’s all direct download and https from what I understand, so all anyone can see is that you went to the sites, not what you download.
