      You’d still be downloading Torrents which isn’t possible or preferable for everybody.

      A good solution is to add a cheap debrid service that acts as a downloader+cache for the torrents and serves them to you at gigabit speeds. Torbox has a $3/month subscription that would already make your experience extremely good.

        The debrid goes without saying.

        I should’ve mentioned that, but any of the guides for the 5-10 min setup include them.

        Prob the only real effort in it is checking which one works best in your region. They all do, but some have better bandwidth than others.

        Keep in mind too, my solution is the “your grandma can cancel her subs and do this right now in a few minutes” deal for the loungeroom telly. Set it up recently for my Aunt, catching up for lunch, along with SmartTube. A few months before, installed an adblocker extention. Life changers.

          An easy way to get somebody a good Stremio setup is to make them an account and do the addons up front. With AIOStreams it’s even easier because it’s just a single addon and you can manage it remotely.
