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?

P2P is great because when I’m using qBittorrent I can see all the suckers who are still using utorrent lol
