Agree with you. The only consistent experience for me is BitTorrent. But trying to google watching a movie for free? Does someone actually do that? It's always hundreds of popup, fake links, fake ads, and can never really get to the actual content.

Bit Torrent “consistent”? Having to worry about the quality of rips, whether there is a complete seed, titled correctly, has the right language, hard coded subtitles in another language, etc?

This is somehow more convenient than just paying $8 a month?

Even then, I would still need to pay for a VPN and no VPN provider provides the bandwidth to keep up with my gigabit internet.
