Once you have it set up right you can
Highly depends on the torrent. If it's something obscure that's on streaming but only has a couple of slow seeders as a torrent, you're probably not going to be able to watch the latter as you download it.
It's still cheaper, and still has a wider selection, but it is not always as convenient as streaming.
But for anything new and popular? Hoist the main sails!
Who said torrent? There's other ways to have it set up too, e.g join a Plex share
Unless you’re like me, no friends with plex servers to hop on to lol
