So I just wanna know is there a way I can setup my old laptop as a remote access “streaming” site for torrented content I want this because I want higher res movies without paying for any subscription that some sites do have. I want to be able to watch the movies from my phone anywhere I am and still get the free high res quality. I also wanna know if it is easier to make my laptop boot Ubuntu or somthing similar to make it more server like, so it doesn’t drain a lot of power and stuff
