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?

soulseek, fopnu, emule, dc++. For old/rare content, emule is the best.

Which client would one use for Emule nowadays?

Wow, I haven't used the old school P2P programs in over a decade. I honestly didn't think they existed anymore for some reason.
