ALVIN add-on comes with many features including Trakt support, multiple scrapper packages, library integration, Orion indexer, and support for premium accounts from Real Debrid, Premiumize, All Debrid, and others.
With these services, you will get quality links and you will be able to download content at the highest speed that your connection supports. However, of these two services, Real Debrid is more recommended.
