I'm starting to collect some documentaries for my server but having a hard time finding torrents on the public sites. Is there a torrent site that specializes in documentaries?

Consider non-torrent P2P platforms like eMule/eD2K. If you know what the name of you're looking for, there's a fair amount of obscure material to be downloaded that can be difficult to find otherwise.

eD2K is slow, but effective.

Is this similar to Soulseek or Napster/Kazaa in the old days?

I believe that eD2K was the next P2P to gain wide popularity after those went down.

It's de-centralized, so unlike Napster/Kazaa, the feds can't take it down by seizing only one server, which they have tried.
