There was a lot more shaddy torrent sites
P2p didn't go away there is just a lot more normies on Netflix and Spotify now

We downloaded a lot of shitty camrips and exe's named as if they were porn scenes

In primetime p2p days you didn't need torrent sites. Back in like 06 I could find any album or movie by simply typing it's title followed by ".rar" into Google. We're talking MEGAupload days

That's not p2p you retard

Yes it is

No it's not. What do you think p2p means?

Peer to peer

Penis to pagina

rapidshare et al was a wild time but not p2p

Napster
Audiogalaxy
DirectConnect
Kazaa
Kazaa Lite
Ares
LimeWire
Morpheus
Gnutella
eDonkey
Soulseek
WinMX
Winny
Share
PerfectDark

And how exactly do you think megaupload is peer to peer, when you're never directly connecting to the other peer

Direct download is not peer to peer retard

Because we were sharing files peer to peer. How is that hard to understand, zoomie?

>call him a dumb zoomer that’ll make me feel supr smrt

lmao good troll

Before torrents we were downloading shit from XDCC bots running on hacked machines. I only used p2p for downloading older music that was hard to find on IRC. I could go to vcdquality.com and see screenshots and reviews of all the latest pirated copies of movies. If they said it was good I would try to find it on IRC. I downloaded full albums, games, cracked software, porn, all kinds of shit really this way. Burning movies onto CD-Rs in SVCD format to watch on my DVD player. Swapping discs half way through. Later on I joined scene groups and had access to topsites filled with everything you could possibly want. I was downloading xbox games and dvdr movies on my shitty 3mbit connection. Good times. Later on I found private torrent trackers and was an early adopter of them. Used ratiomaster to cheat on bitsoup.org and also gave my friends cheated accounts to use. Now I'm on all the good ones like HDB, BTN, PTP etc.

Some proper 00s piracy nostalgia

yeah

What do people use in the year 2022 and how can i join the exclusive club?

Shady torrents and you could never trust the quality of music or whether it was just twelve tracks of rickroll. I always got my software from warez groups that had a good reputation. and/or good ascii art.

The only truly good public tracker is rarbg. It sources it's content from private trackers. It doesn't allow user uploads. For private trackers you can't get on the best ones anymore. General trackers might fill your needs though depending on what you're into.

>he didn't know where to find music from the same kinds of groups with similarly enjoyable ascii art
