Or pirate for 0€.
I do love piracy and I do do it sometimes. But sometimes I don't want to spend 20 minutes finding a torrent and then another 30 minutes to an hour waiting for it to download.
My main issue with it is that I have to pre-plan if I want to watch anything through that method.
That's what automation is for.
Whenever I come across an interesting movie/show; I open a webpage that I host, search for a title (results from imdb) and click 'add+search'.
~15min later, it's available for me, my friends, and my family to watch on my own private streaming service. (for such reliably quick downloads, I recommend usenet over torrents)
Sonarr, Radarr, Emby/Jellyfin
Other users besides me can even request content via Ombi.
Ombi always gave me issues and I switched to Overseerr. Similar but more in the *arr family. Since you use Jellyfin, can use Jellyseerr instead for a better integration.
Then use Prowlarr to sync Torrent/Usenet sites to all the *arr services.
The three of them are all pretty similar, achieving the same goal; whatever works for you.
I've never had an issue with Ombi, so I've stuck with it. I actually use Emby instead of Jellyfin, so Overseerr isn't an option, and I've just not had a reason to try out Jellyseer over what's already setup and working.
Prowlarr is definitely a good recommendation. I used Jackett for the longest time; but being able to modify indexers in one place, then have it propagate to the rest of the stack is so much nicer. It lists a ton of indexers to look into too, if you need more.
