While trying to find a torrent for a show, I became curious about how others are creating the torrents I know and love. Is ripping a video from a streaming service relatively easy? Are there tools y’all would recommend?

You would have to crack DRM if you want to rip from streaming services. See Widevine.

There are multiple classes of security L3, L2 etc and correspondingly harder to bypass.

Fee people know how to bypass it. I guess you can research more about how it works and try to find if you can bypass it.

Thanks for the info! In all likelihood will never pursue this but always happy to learn more about how things work.
