I have ~100 users downloaded ~1000 of my files in the last week alone. Music piracy is still alive and kicking. I encourage everyone to download and install SoulseekQT/Nicotine+/Seeker-Android and share whatever kind of music you have for everybody to download. Let's bring back music piracy!

Was anyone saying it was dead? I guess it took a hit when What went down, but I don't think people are going to stop listening to music...

This is a good reminder I should get back on soulseek, though; I used to use it and it was pretty great.

They meant more that due to the relatively cheap & easy to use stream subscriptions most people don't pirate music. Of course they will be people still doing it.

Similar to Netflix at the beginning... Then it got more expensive and multiple streaming providers appeared and everything got splitted into different platforms etc...and that's was it, back to piracy for a lot of people.
