Private trackers will probably be your best bet imo if you want to stick with torrents, any popular genarl private tracker will probably be enough. If they dont have it already you can request it and someone will probably have it uploaded in a few days (unless its something really obscure). If you can seed long term and maintain a good ratio then getting into more specilized tracker wont be a issue. If you want I can check if I still have an invite for Torrentleech, they might have what you are looking for.
If used them a few times before tools to rip from streaming services became as common as they are now and thkse releases are fine. Dont really see a reason to use them nowadays tho besdies the scenes seal of approval.
Also I get your frustration with people not understanding what you mean with "scene" here, but tbf you could have specified which scene, in this case it would be the warezscene that you are talking about.
For those unaware about the warezscene, they are the groups that make releases for every type of media and are bound by rules (you can look them up if you wanna know specifics about those), the names the op mentioned are a result of those rules.
Scene groups only release to other scene groups via ftp servers, they dont release in places the average joe can download them. Their releases trickel down from people with access to those ftp servers and hit usenet and private trackers before then hitting public trackers.
By taking a look at the megathread and using one of the many sites linked there to obtain the desired content
It is, you just gotta find the right sources. Im on multiple trackers that focus on german dubs and can get most of the stuff i want. Everything else is just a request away.
Try soulseek, has been a while since i used it but you can find almost anything there from my experience and in good quality too
maybe try koalageddon, it can hook into the steam client itself and unlock them from there. if the game doesnt ship the files for the dlcs with the game unless you have bought the dlc then you can probably find them in the games thread on cs.rin.ru
DRM free games dont need steam emus, they have no DRM just copy and paste the files and your good to go. Almost all other games that only use Steam's DRM can be cracked by replacing the dll and in some cases patching the exe. There are tools that to all the heavy lifting for you.
There sould be an option to disable the ads, they are just there if you want to support them without donating
As others have stated that its game dependent, if you want to get some that work online check out online-fix.me or cs.rin.ru
fmhy.net has some tools listed in their audio ripping section that might work, haven't tested them myself.
