    Usenet really is great for piracy, I’m so happy that I found out about it like a decade ago. So much better than torrents.

      But why? I’ve been using torrents with ease for a very long time.

        Once you set it up, it’s automatic. The *arr tools were built with usenet in mind, Jackett and the like are just wrappers, also Usenet is a lot faster and flies under the “piracy radar” unlike torrents.

          Yeah but I don’t use the arr tools, I use the other ones which do the same deal but for torrents.

          Private trackers tend to fly under the radar to a degree too. I’m not sure how Usenet does since it’s still a popular method and seems just like a private tracker without sharing your IP with your peers but you pay for it

            I belong to a few private trackers as well, they’re not exactly easy to get into. I feel that Usenet is “more clean” because you don’t have to seed the file for X days.
