Soulseek >>>>> piratebay by a wide margin for music.

Only place I’ve found like 90s underground Memphis rap demos and obscure black metal and shit that’s not even on spotify.

I’ve been building my own collection for years. I have around 8k albums.

My friend does the same and is up to 38k albums. I connect to both of our libraries via Plex.

For everything else I use private trackers and torrent. I’ve also built out huge movies, tv, anime libraries with my friends.
