I was looking through the megathread and saw this real-debrid thing. I have heard this name some times so I read what it does but wasn’t able to understand it. If someone could explain it to me I would appreciate it.
Also, it caught my attention that “it’s a good way to prevent your IP from ever hitting the torrent’s swarm, which is the main cause of receiving copyright infringement letters”. Does this mean it’s an alternative to a VPN when torrenting? Is it like a seedboxes or something? Are there any free alternatives?
also really popular in Germany, because if you download the torrent yourself, you can get a huge fine from the copyright owner.
I’ve wondered if Real-Debrid actually is German made too. The dash in the name gives that vibe.
how does a dash sound german?
der strich… That’s how.
It’s the most commonly spoken (Western) language that uses a lot of compound words with and without dashes. I always tend to think there’s a German speaker involved when I see dashes used in English where a native English speaker wouldn’t use a dash, hah.
It’s French, I suspect based on the entity receiving the payment
