I was primarily looking for olden movies - I tend to binge-watch old horror B-movies - and the downloads were usually greater than 2 gigs.
Thanks for the explanation.

Even with HEVC encodes, 2-3 GBs is what I look for in terms of quality. FNP divided the torrents by what kind of encode they were from full disc rips to web downloads. So the size between those torrent varied wildly.
If you just wanna watch B movies once and delete, you’re better off scouring YouTube for random uploads.
