That's a poor comparison. Those are tangible things that you've seen and known about your whole life - it's hardly the same.
Many of the members here didn't even know what a torrent was a year or two ago, and even if they did, it doesn't mean they know squat about tracker ranking.
I have a buddy who I invited to torrentleech only yesterday. I turned him on to torrents almost two years ago, but he was still using Mininova, Torrentspy, and TPB as those are the ones included in the search within his client. Most people don't get as involved in torrents as much as you guys do, myself included. Everything I've learned about them, I picked up from reading on this forum. I never even tried to get an account to sct, ftn, fsc, etc. and still have no interest in them.
I get most of my downloads via newsgroups these days unless I need to fall back on torrents. Once you've seen the newsgroups "light", only then will you have reached the mountaintop.
It's comical to read how all the torrent members mock the new guys for not knowing what's "best", but the newsgroups members say the same about torrent users.
Oh well, to each his own. If it weren't for FST,
I'd probably still be using Kazaa.
