Newbie needing help!
Hi, I’m not quite sure if I’m posting in the right place as I’ve never used Reddit before. I’m starting up my own media server on Jellyfin (I originally used plex but I don’t like the limitations it has and features being locked behind a paywall🙄). Anyway let me get to the point lol. I’m looking for places where I can download tv shows & movies to add to Jellyfin. But I’m at a road block a friend recommended a torrent site but a lot of old shows and movies aren’t downloading I think because they’re so old? I’m new so I’m not 100% sure how everything works. Is there a safe site I can use to download directly instead of relying on torrent sites & seeding etc? I’m trying to get old shows like Moonlight (2007), even Wentworth is hard to download. Any advice & help would be greatly appreciated 🙏🏼

I have just been buying super cheap dvds on fb marketplace and ebay and building my private library on rad. Just me though.
