Ive thought about torrents but they require a paid vpn from what i know? I dont really want to pay, which is why im thinking about piracy because im not made of money and cant afford a vpn. Im just not sure if its possible to be safe and sail the seven seas all for free?

What would you advise i do? what did you do when starting out?

Hey, this could get you started. Its not the same but you can try "c/Archive" and/or "c/YouTube" but its not much yet :-) You can also try IRC Downloading its free no seeding needed and if you use SASL/SSL you don't need vpn. There is also something like this "Only One Petabyte and 464,392 files" of shows/movies, should be enought for you for a while =) I mean who needs torrents if you can easily download direct LOL
