I'll have a browse through what you have. If you want "real dubstep" then gimme a search "music4cheese"

The music I play is pretty damn niche and soulseek has been great for finding a lot of things that I just simply wont get anywhere else. Unfortunately it is also a genre full of elitest gatekeeping "vinyl only release" cunts so it naturally draws the locked file crowd.

If i wasnt poor then I would make it my mission to buy up and rip all the vinyl only releases just to make them available to everyone. Sadly I am poor xD

Im pretty sure, at least in my case, they do have the files. The music I play is pretty damn niche so it wouldnt be worth it for someone to try and run a scam like that imo. Although for more mainstream stuff that could be a possibility, but then if it is more popular usually there are many people sharing it unlocked.

Fuck knows xD

Same! I look through my uploaded list and read what other people are getting from me with a warm fuzzy feeling!

In a similar vein people on soulseek who have all their files locked unless you trade with them, particularly the ones who want gift vouchers and shit like that I feel goes against the community spirit of piracy as a whole. If I get hold of something rare or that has broken street date i'm excited to share it with others who may no be able to get it for whatever reason.

Really pisses me off scrolling through my search results seeing loads of lock symbols with user info listing demands that must be met for you to be oh so privaledged enough to receive a right to download from them. It goes against what I grew up knowing piracy to be, I'm guessing I am a similar age to you though.

And to all you soulseek users listing locked files with lists of demands to access them. Fuck you.

Pirate bay is fine as long as you use common sense with the files you are downloading. I still use it for audiobooks and some movies and it is absolutely fine.

These are those new double wide double foot skis I keep hearing about!?

A lot of these shows are free on their respective streaming service (ITVX for Love Island for example), are you not able to use a VPN to access them?

Print to PDF?

Guillermo del toros cabinet of curiosities is pretty great.

If you liked "people just do nothing" then their new show "the curse" is a decent watch.

"Beef" is alright.

I just started another watch through of Lost and that is great for sure xP

Another vote for trying soulseek if you haven't already. Best place for music imo.
