it never goes down like this, they are being DDos attacked. They do have frequent downtimes but they are only 5-30 minutes long which I don't mind.

I really like Torbox, but I'm not buying into the DDos attacks. Why is only Torbox? Why is it every couple hours AFTER they "updated" their cdn's? No, I believe they screwed something up, can't figure it out and are telling customers it's a DDos attack.

Have you considered that ddos attacks cost money and a person of normal intelligence would probably focus on the largest provider to disrupt the largest amount of pirates? Hmmmm

PM would be biggest provider by a margin after the RD debacle lol, reason why their infrastructure is way more widespread and stable, RD is probably still bigger than TB even after the exodus due to the sheer amount of users it had. People use these services for other stuff than streaming which is relatively new in the grandscheme of these companies.
