The setup and instructions helped a lot with setting up. My library is small and local now but the future is bright. Thank you all for writing info answers and docs.

Special thanks for all the devs of Sonarr, Radarr, Prowlarr, Torrent clients and nzb360.

Extra special thanks to the devs at Jellyfin. Honestly this whole set blew my mind.

whats the purpose of a media server

See this reply to my questions here for a good walkthrough of what this stack of software does. Basically helps you make your own streaming service by downloading what you want to host from different sources and you can access it from your devices. Like your own custom Netflix.

Download a torrent file and put it into a torrent client. Let the client download the torrent. Take the resulting file and watch it using the video player of your choice.
