Is this possible without torrents? Like getting content from a streaming website rather than torrents?

This is a cool setup. But torrents in Europe? Too many horror stories.

Is it possible to have such a setup without the torrents but rather using a streaming website? Also does are there prepackaged setups with all these ready to use for example a raspberry pi os built with everything. I just hook it up with my NAS for storage and am good to go?

I usually avoid anything to do with torrents. I don't know how to get a VPN working on TVs basically.

I do use cloudstream. Its good but often the links don't work and (being very choosy) it doesn't work on Samsung TVs. The casting from a phone is hit and miss as well. Part of the appeal of Netflix was the ease of use. If I struggle to play something I want to watch or can't cast it to my TV, then it misses the point.

 

With the recent password sharing crackdown, I decided to ditch my Netflix subscription and try piracy. What I miss about Netflix is scrolling through content and finding something to watch. With piracy I need to know exactly what I am looking for.

So I am wondering if it's possible to have a Netflix like GUI but powered by piracy? And as this is the pirate world, it shows shows and movies not just from Netflix but also from the other streaming services? And finally it is available on TVs ( Samsung tizen in my case). Something like this would be the best case scenario. Wondering if someone has a similar setup?
