What a debriding service does is download the torrent for you, and cache it on their servers. From there you can download it from their servers without ever "touching" the torrent itself. Common uses for it are with Stremio, to stream cached movie torrents directly from the debrid service's servers.
These services are also used to download from paywalled DDL websites, such as rapidgator, nitrodl, etc, so you do not need to wait 500 hours of 50kbps.
also really popular in Germany, because if you download the torrent yourself, you can get a huge fine from the copyright owner.
I've wondered if Real-Debrid actually is German made too. The dash in the name gives that vibe.
how does a dash sound german?
der strich... That's how.
It's the most commonly spoken (Western) language that uses a lot of compound words with and without dashes. I always tend to think there's a German speaker involved when I see dashes used in English where a native English speaker wouldn't use a dash, hah.
How-did-you-know-im-german??
It’s French, I suspect based on the entity receiving the payment
