> sometimes the only available option is to pirate it

I once had to pay 500€ for torrenting an episode of The Americans that I had no way of buying legally, at least in my country at that time.

The only thing I regret? Using torrent and not some alternative where they can't get you for "illegal distribution".

Consider paying for a seedbox or VPS instead.

Nah, these days I mostly stick with DDL, I pay for 1-2 year subscriptions for 1-2 different providers and I'm pretty much set for all my needs.
