So what happened to the hundreds of other threads about filesharing which got closed because of 'EoFF doesn't condone this :bou::bou::bou::bou:'

Also, bittorrent is old hat. Usenet and file upload sites are where it's at

If I'm not going to pay for the products I'm pirating I'm certainly not going to pay to pirate them.

Kazaa is still around too. How awful.

I use the Google search engine. Torrents are definitely better though.

Basically you sign up for a usenet provider and use an nzb grabber to download ur :bou::bou::bou::bou:.

I guess I'm lucky that my ISP provides a premium usenet pipe for free. :)

Thanks for saving me from typing a post, Rostum!

But yeah, a lot of ISPs offer their own news servers. It's not so common anymore, though.

Really? I guess that's what I get for having TDS followed by Timer Warner.

I don't really know how it could be any better than a private torrent tracker though. Not that I know jack about it other than every time I looked into it the only option was to pay.

It's called living in an area full of ignorant rich people who don't know how to secure their wireless router.

Seriously though, I had free internet for seven years this way and I don't pay for my current internet connection. Free internet isn't the least bit difficult to get.

I imagine your comment was supposed to be a sarcastic jab at me, but I actually use my internet connection for things other than pirating stuff. But at the same time I actually don't pay for an internet connection either and never have. It's not hard. :p

What kind of argument is this? "You're already paying for internet, might as well pay some more"?
