I feel like I have more availability to get what I want now, than when I was using Limewire/Kazaa/Napster/eMule/etc.
If it was super popular, you could get it. If it was obscure, uncommon, niche, and other synonyms, if you did find it 90% of the time it was simply given an incorrect name and wasn't actually what you wanted.
I used to have a demonoid account and kept my seed ratio high just because that private tracker had the biggest collection of random ass music and movies you couldn't find anywhere else. Unreleased shit and whatnot.
This is literally how I got introduced to several bands I never would have heard otherwise. Missing one track off one album, downloading...this definitely isn't the right track, but who is this? And now I need to download another 8 albums by that band...
Private trackers have gotten way better. I think they've figured out how to retain obscure and rare things. At least RED, GGn, OPH, BTN and PTP have. I'm sure there are others.
Come back to torrenting if you feel trapped by subscriptions and enshittification. There is a bar to entry, but it ain't too bad.
I do miss the weird fake tracks. There was a whole 3rd "Portishead" album that fake.
I kinda wanna look up who actually made that "Link, he come to town!" song. Because it sure as hell was not System of a Down. lol
Know anyone with invites to acid lounge? I let my account lapse for like 5 years, and cannot get back in, bo matter how many attempts at requesting.
