      Ah, my bad. I’m so used to it all that I can’t help but spit out jargon with no context sometimes 😅

      I’m referring to apps like Sonarr, which basically keeps an eye on torrent/usenet providers and downloads episodes for you automatically. So you tell it you want some show, optionally set the quality you want it at, and it takes care of everything so that the episodes just show up on Jellyfin/Plex after they air and it grabs them. There’s also Radarr for movies and a whole bunch of related ones.

        Just make sure you use a VPN so you don’t get a nasty DMCA notice from your ISP.

          Pretty much the one upside of living where I do is ISPs couldn’t care less haha

          Appreciate the heads-up anyway, very much relevant to a good portion of the folks who might stumble upon my comment :)

      They’re small services that you load your libraries into, and select content you want to get and the quality of that content. Then the service goes out and finds the torrents for you and adds them to your library.
