It was good, I also use to use bearshare and morpheus.

Those were the good ole days of filesharing the software was easy for norms to use so everyone was on it sharring their stuff.

Youd be surprised at the porn you could find on there, You know the good porn the real amature stuff that homemade stuff, now all you got is that shitty proam shit made to look homemade.

Aim was great too. It was like a never ending stream of highschool girls sending nudes all day every day.

You youngsters now days will never know the real wild west thr internet use to be before the social media jews ruined it.

Sort of related.

Provided HD rips when youtube was still on 360p or so.

I think a few lawsuit threats forced Divx group to shut it down.

What is Divx doing these days anyway?

>>54702228
Use private trackers instead

Sorry, I didn't realise that meme was dep... -aarting our collective lexicon.

When P2P apps other than torrents were still relevant I used Shareaza and avoided heaps of malware baked directly in the application. Never used nor cared about Kazaa. Made good cash cleaning up PCs that had it installed from all the adware that it included and malware that people would get when they downloaded Pop song.mp3.exe.

No matter what you searched you would get fake files filled with malware, did bots create those files on the fly or something?

Pretty sure they did

my alltime favorite, it had the nicest progression bars. leaving your computer on for days to download a movie with your 5GB data plan just to discover it was a porn movie was the best

Kazaa was like 80% CP in early 2000s, shit was crazy.

Great site, discovered a lot of good nippon music there. They shut it down because it was costing too much to run and they kinda said it was just a test thingy anyway. Shame they were not more serious about it.

Know a dude that used a P2P network supposedly for music, got arrested for CP distribution using some bs called Aries.

When I suggested to the investigator that on P2P networks porn is sometimes dissimulated to look like music files when you search for them and push download and that a ignorant user wouldn't know any different, she flipped her shit.

Everything went better than expected.

Can anyone actually explain why that happened so much? It was unavoidable.

>>54702723
yeah, never used it, it always looked like shit to me

>>54702738
that doesn't explain automatic instant results no matter what you searched for.

Do you remember when super compressed rips were a thing?

Amount yes, quality no.

I remember downloading Vice City in a 1MiB file and then waiting fucking hours to decompress it. I still have no clue how that fucking algorithm works.

Used it before most of cp there turned out to be not cp. Moved to http then.

emule is still used beleive it or not, the servers are probably not any good but the kad network is decentralized so it can last forever.
