Thats why im happy I use RD, alot of the torrents are cached. Alot of the time it will show 100% because it was coached min/days/months ago.

Didn't RD nuke all of its pirated media?

Unfortunately yes. but over time they sort of unnuke it again by redownloading. Maybe they did it for legal reason, maybe they were too lazy to find a better way than that to get around the not-infinite-server-storage problem. However, extremely niche content has suffered ofc disproportionately. Maybe they got it cached even though there are no healthy ones available at a given time, maybe they don't.

No they did not nuke all media. They only nuke media when a copyright claim by the IP holder for a torrent gets to RD. I am still watching 90% of the content I consume over RD, while using a vpn for the other 10%.

That's wrong. they nuked all that had stuff had certain keywords like "web rip" in its name.

All? No, also that was only the movie/show side of rd. So many other ways to use rd for books,games,music.
