There is a provider with Usenet which serves the same purpose (and costs money so there's a trade off). Radarr and Sonarr are not finding the content for you. It's coming from whatever service you are using.

Well my internet costs money too. Netflix would be 20 bucks and i have 30% of what muricans have. My usenet is 5 bucks a month, the indexers (2 atm) are like 25 a year. So i would still have money left for a nice tea ๐Ÿ˜

And netflix wouldn't be enough. If i had all providers i want, it'll be >100 moneyz a month. That's ridiculous. And probably still missing something

But yes. Take torrents and save even those mere bucks. I just want it comfy and fast. The principle would be the same.

Ok? Why are you bringing Netflix into it? No one suggested that. You can do whatever you want the point of my responses are that Sonarr/Radarr are not as simple as you implied.

Of course they aren't. As netflix wouldn't be enough too, you need internet, a device, an OS and an app. Wouldn't mention those when talking about netflix too. So yes. Of course you'd need a downloader and probably an indexer too. And a firewall, vpn and whatever else you can think of, and a media-server, and an app, and a device and OS. Oh and a browser to input your search into. Probably a keyboard too :-)

But *narrs are those that take your input, query indexers, do the background-work, put results into your downloader(s) of choice and into your media-server of choice. They're the crucial part here. Like the netflix-app for watching netflix-content. Everything else is your personal flavour.
