I'm a bit surprised to see so many torrent posts. Are most people still using Torrents? Are most piracy users aware of programs like sonarr or radarr?

Good luck using sonarr and radarr for non-english content.

Usenet for most things movies, music, tv, ebooks, etc.

I don't really pirate software or pc games at this point.

Torrents for things like rom collections and console games for emulators.

Also randomly will torrent things like magazine packs for old mags like computer shopper from archive.org for whimsy.

usenet by default and torrent as a secondary option

Both currently

I mainly use usenet, but I torrent anything I can't get on usenet. Maybe my indexer or server just sucks. I use Sonarr, Radarr, and SABnzbd plus Frugal Usenet and NZBgeek for usenet downloads. Qbitorrent plus VPN for torrents.
