Oh that's neat. Yeah I use Airvpn currently, but would be interested in Proton or Azire if I could automate with a script like you said.

Been thinking about trying Azire, do they provide static ports?

Would you care to elaborate? I don't really see how it would be wrong?

I'm pretty new to torrenting as well. To answer your questions based on the personal research I've done.

1. You absolutely require a VPN. Definitely a paid one. The free ones are not of good quality and a lot of them are more than likely to be detrimental to your privacy. Also P2P is not a requirement for torrenting. All it does is it enables you to make more connections in the swarm and making the torrent download faster. Some good recommendations of VPN's with port forwarding I've seen thrown around are Proton VPN, Airvpn. Options without port forwarding are Mullvad, or IVPN.

2. I've been using 1337x for movies and TV shows and it's been great. I've also heard Torrent Galaxy is good as well. As always though be really careful with what you download no matter what. Always run a scan on files you download.

3. Qbittorrent is the best.

I use 1Password for mine.
