It’s basically a Torrent tracker as a service with a web interface to directly stream your torrents in your browser or to a Chromecast, Apple TV and whatever.
You pay for the amount of storage you want, then you select whatever torrents you want to download, either via a browser extension or services like chill.institute that look through common torrent search engines for you and give the opportunity to download instantly to your put.io account. You’re completely in charge of your library and put.io won’t show you anything you didn’t download yourself.
What’s put.io do exactly?

Oh damn. Nice. But I assume that also means I don’t download or ‘have’ any of them right? I’d be paying put.io to store and stream them?
How’s the library?

Huh. Cool.
Thanks!
I did not do a deep dive but it looks like it might be a way to access usenet.
