Apologies if this is a basic question, but I am curious to know what I am missing out on by not having access to private torrents? I have been able to find everything I wanted using public ones.

    If you don’t have your own full time torrent server with high upload bandwidth, it’s going to be difficult to get the seed ratios you need.

    I agree with this for some trackers, but many give bonus points based on passive seeding as well, which can then be exchanged to contribute to your upload ratio. Just having a large drive to use for seeding should be enough - that’s what I’ve done at least for nearly 8 years now.
