I do use BitTorrent, but it's never going to beat the convenience of just searching for a file and getting it when p2p networks first came out.

For niche stuff like 1930s movies sometimes I need to start a few torrents to make sure at least one of them has seeds.

I have had success with soulseek for music, but what do you guys use for other types of files?

Ya, the original site is gone. There are mirrors cropping up based on a db dump of some kind, but the old site is gone.
