To understand the importance of TorrentsDB, one must understand how Stremio works. Stremio does not host content. Instead, it uses an add-on system. When a user selects a movie like Dune: Part Two , Stremio sends a request to all installed add-ons, asking, "Do you have this content?"

Stremio itself is a neutral media hub. However, because TorrentsDB pulls links from public torrent trackers, using a VPN is highly recommended if you are not using a Debrid service, as streaming torrents directly exposes your IP address to the public swarm. Users are responsible for ensuring they only access content in compliance with their local copyright laws. TorrentsDB - Stremio Addons
