    First, you need to download a good torrent client. A torrent is a file (in our example, a movie file) that is uploaded by other users and made available to download to you. A torrent client is a program that gives you access to the torrent network and allows you to download files from others.

    I recommend Utorrent: µTorrent – a (very) tiny BitTorrent client

    Now, you need to protect yourself against getting sued, because downloading movies is illegal, right? Technically you can download torrents illegally, and you may never get sued or caught, but do so at your own risk. If you want to take the safe route, you’ll need a good VPN. It will cost you a little, but I think it’s worth it. A VPN (virtual private network) masks your internet activity, it shows every website and IP you connect to as coming from a different location than your home. Basically, your home PC connects to the VPN which then connects to the torrent network and websites.

    I recommend PIA – Private Internet Access – Anonymous VPN Service Provider

    Lastly, you need to find the torrents that you want to download. There are many sites online for this, however most of them are built to barrage you with tons of ads and will likely give you virus’s or hijack your browser to mine for cryptocurrency. This is the part that usually scares everyone away, but if you are choosy in the sites you use, you can remain relatively safe.

    Everyone’s favorite is of course, the pirate bay: https://thepiratebay.org/

    Its connection is spotty however.

    You can also use google to search for torrents you want, but this is also hit and miss. Plus, the vast majority of websites dedicated to torrents are created to barrage you with ads and give virus’s etc.

    The best way by far is to join a private community of illegal downloaders. It sounds scary, but once you get past the fear and remember to protect yourself with a good vpn it is easy.

    I reccomend using Torrenting – Login – Torrenting.com

    You will need to create an account, it is free for the first 10gb downloaded. After this, you will have to upload (for other users to download) your torrents in order to maintain a positive download/upload ratio. You can skirt around this limitation by creating new accounts every time you hit the 10gb limit, or pay for it.

    That’s all there is to it basically. I do not download illegally of course, this is just for informational purposes. I recommend using playstation vue and netflix for your movie entertainment purposes.
