I'm a bit surprised to see so many torrent posts. Are most people still using Torrents? Are most piracy users aware of programs like sonarr or radarr?

DC++ and Soulseek gang here plus some personal contacts and sites mainly DDL

Yeah I like the smell of my own farts. I got PT access too but I try to minimize use these days. Usenet is great but I have too much ego to pay for anything currently outside of internet connection and storage.

Just discovered Soulseek (Nicotine+). proper old school p2p actually feels like sailing the high seas.

I love the variety of Soulseek and not having to worry about preserving files in a specific folder system for seeding, but the speeds really kill it for anything larger than an album or two. Wish we could have the best of both worlds: speeds from multiple users and the flexibility of just sharing file systems.

You can also test ed2k/kad networks, it has the speeds of multiple users and the flexibility to have the files as you want.

DC++ does it but it’s even more selective than PTs. Maybe someone on here can start a hub for all the members here
