In some countries, torrent consumers' IPs are tracked and they get sued => hassle.

Besides, I have all Netflix, Amazon Prime, Twitch Prime. The last time I watched any of them is months ago, I am too busy with life to watch some random torrents I have to download hours before.

I don't think people are watching random torrents. Well, I am not.

I see a film review, or someone will tell me about a program / film / documentary / series. I will grab the torrent and watch it at the weekend once the kids are in bed and have a couple of beers

Sounds like it would be more hassle for you to find out which service has the content you wanted to watch, then just going to a torrent site that is 99% sure of having it ;)

Literally no one ever gets sued where I'm from.

The highest video quality that Netflix offers is worse than even a bad rip, since their demographics don't care.

also it would appear that some isps tend to analyze network traffic looking for certain content hashes over dht, and automatically reporting them to content owners.
