Why pay someone else to run a service that you’d have been paying Netflix for.

That’s how I feel about Usenet tbh. If you’re going to pay, actually pay to support the shows you’re watching. IMO.

Otherwise you build a server PC and set it up for the *arr suite, Radarr, Sonarr and the rest. It’s the cost of your internet and your electricity after the upfront cost of your server.

Bonus: you have it when your internet is down, since they’re downloaded to the hard drive.

I’m of a similar opinion but really it depends on the user’s wants.

I personally don’t care for an easy app like interface. My set up is literally just wireless keyboard and mouse in the living room and a pc hooked up to my TV. I just stream stuff from ‘free’ sites online. It’s not much effort really. I’m not usually interested in checking out movies and shows the moment they release, I can wait a couple weeks or months for them to pop up in good quality on those sites.
