Probably that there’s not many people with access to private trackers

Same here. Tixati is hard to beat in terms of functionality, plus it has this old-school feeling to it I find very nostalgic

I use aria for regular downloads, but couldn’t get it to work with torrents. It’s very picky what it downloads and what not. Maybe configuration thing, but gave up after few tries. I prefer dedicated solutions

That’s what I can’t wrap my head around. If it’s possible with music and work well for all parties, then why not to do the same with movies. All I read are some bullshit non answers about different laws applied to music and movies. Even if it is so, same companies who lobbied for those laws should now lobby to change them again, problem solved. Instead they wade further in this sunken cost fallacy

For me it’s pretty much dead. Since I’ve got YT music subscription I don’t download music anymore, except some rare, obscure bands from past. Because modern, rare obscure I can support via Bandcamp and the likes. For real gold mine of music checkout soulseek. If it’s not there, you can assume it doesn’t exists
