Because I don't want to have to pay a service just to watch my entire team suck.

Idk. I started getting Windows notifications about McAfee which I immediately clicked and they asked me to call a number. I kind man with an Indian accent asked me to transfer $3000 which I felt was reasonable. He said thank you very much and I'm protected. I don't see McAfee anywhere on my machine but I assume it's just hiding so viruses can't tell it's there.

Thanks. I ended up going with Syncthing and it works beautifully.

I am on day 4. So close.

what's an illegal sport?

The Seedbox is just a remote download server I use to download from Usenet/Torrents via Sonarr/Radarr. It then moves off that server to my Plex server via Syncthing. I was able to successfully connect to my Plex server via "Connections" in the settings, but I can't seem to get it to see what I have there. I have several instances where it downloaded the same movie four times in different formats, even though I have it set to only 1080p. Maybe I'm just missing something in the setup or a true understanding of how those apps work. I'm pretty new at this.
