Bro, you have no idea what you're turning down. I get it; on the surface it does seem sus. I was suspicious too until I tried it. Debrid is an absolute game-changer. It's kind of like a seed box, except it's more like a collective seed box. So if at least one user added the torrent before, you can download it immediately.
I don't know what you mean by "lack of detail / pricing" on their website. The pricing is laid out very clearly, and there's not a lot of explanation cause it's really that simple. (EDIT: Looks like you need to make a free account to see the pricing; I'll admit that's stupid). So here's a screenshot:

You don't have to use Real-Debrid. I just mentioned them cause they're the most popular. Google "Debrid services" for alternatives. There's also a megathread on reddit.
I get the "never pay for piracy" argument, but with torrents you need a VPN to keep your ISP off your ass, so at the end of the day, you're paying for piracy regardless. Debrid is cheaper than a VPN.
It bothers me so much that you're not willing to give it a shot, that I made a video to show you how fast, easy, and convenient it is. And here's another video of me streaming a movie almost instantly, in case you still think I'm full of shit. (Videos might still be processing when you see this, so try again later if the quality is too low for you to see what I'm doing.)
Idk, I've been using the free tier of torrents (except for a VPN, which I'd have anyway) and never not downloaded close to my full speed. Don't really know how what you say beats that.
Also btw if you load sequentially and first and last pieces first you can start watching your downloaded files immediately with any normal torrent. DL speed just has to be faster than total playtime of what you're watching.
Even if that were true, Debrid services are still faster. Torrents can take a minute or two even get started in torrent clients. Debrid is instant, even if the torrent doesn't have a lot of seeds. Think of it like a shared seedbox, where anyone can add to/download from it. And like I said, it's cheaper than a VPN.
But whatever, do what you want. If you don't want to try it, that's on you. I literally offered to pay for it, and you still won't give it a shot it. I give up.
(Some people, man.)
As I said, since I have a VPN anyway, torrents are literally free for me. I believe you, I just don't want to pay for another service.
Alright fine. I hope I managed to convince at least one other person, though...
Also the other problem I have is that when I start paying for a piracy service, then when the service gets busted and I'm in any way identifiable as their customer, I might very easily be in legal trouble. With a VPN at least you have plausible deniability that you're using it just to stay as private as possible.
