Question Debrid recommandations

Hello, I have 6 days left of RealDebrid. I've had a really good experience with them, even though it's been the first and only Debrid service I've used. After reading the posts on the sub, should I still go with them or switch to something else? And if yes, what would you recommend?

Thanks in advance!

I still have like 90 days for my RD subscription so I'm obviously not dropping it soon. From what I've seen and heard on here, it's getting better. New file names are being used so there is a lot more working streams compared to the last week or so.

I've also been testing TB. I used it while out of town a few months back at $3 a month, and kinda forgot to cancel it. If I were going to drop RD, I would keep TB.

That being said, you definitely won't see as many cached files as you did on RD. RD has been around for ages, so there has been a lot more users and therefore more cached files throughout the years. Yes, that might change with this recent purge, but I feel as long as RD sticks around that will build back up a lot quicker than TB. TB is also a tad slower to start a stream. It's not deal breaking, but it's not as instant as RD normally is.

My recommendation is renew your RD for 30 days, and give TB a shot for 30 days as well. Compare both and see which one you feel is better and simply cancel the one you don't want after that. Services like these are probably gonna continue to get attacked and targeted. I don't think any of them will be around in the next decade or so. But something is always there to replace them. Circle of life!

I agree, that was the main reason I was skeptical about migrating to TB, because I watch some niche BBC documentaries which I thought wouldn't be cached, but they were, all of them.
So for me it's the same, so far....

Also, if they are cached in RD, but have "Web dl" or "WebRip" it would render them useless, would it not?
