Sure if you want a unknown quality stream with extra ads and malware loading down the website.

Who is paying for that bandwdith? (It's you)

Not that I have done it, but I've heard that usually the first results from yandex torrents are from reputable sites or forums that are quite known to the pirate community. At least regarding torrent, I haven't heard much about streams

We're literally commenting on a article about how Netflix will inject Ai ads lol. And besides that if you're pirating content I assume you don't have any moral qualms about using a ad blocker. Bandwidth is also basically free?
