How does one get into a warez topsite

[vBooM]

nzb is dead, ring your mum.

Old fashioned

Just another keyboard warrior it seems
This place is filled with old-school people that know exactly where and how to find their releases, be it via torrents, via DDL-boards, FXP, FTP or the Newsgroups.
When you claim one of those sucks, you just prove your ignorance.

Torrents = Free signup and downloading.

Nzb = Pay for suscription

Which wins?

Same Speeds, same files.

Sharing back 1:1 on torrents, so what.

That's where you're wrong. Usenet has stuff BT doesn't, and BT has stuff Usenet doesn't. Also, newsgroups guarantee full speed as long as the file is available, whereas you can't always say that about torrents.

SCC,FTN,PTM, GFT, ive never had slow downloads always maxed, maybe on public trackers, yes, but on the top torrent sites you will never get slow torrents.

How can you glory paying to download over nzb?

Erm,
SCC FTN And GFT all have slow torrents. I know from experience. They all have older stuff with 1-2 seeders on it, and guess what? Sometimes their upload speed is cap'd.
I can tell you for sure about these three sites because I'm the last seeder on a couple files, and I can confirm to you I will not max out anyones lines.

Also, with more and more usa isp's putting bandwidth caps in place, it is beneficial to not have to upload everything you download. That means I can get 2x the stuff from newsgroups that I can with torrents per month. All for a measly $10. If you can not afford that to get $1000's of free shit, then you must be like 12.

Each system has its pro's and con's.

Go spout your shit elsewhere.

I can haz topsite now?

Care to explain why nzb posters IP's match rtorrent ips seeding in private trackers then?

This newsgroups vs. torrents 'discussion' is bullshit and not going anywhere. Just use whatever you prefer.

However, I don't understand why you'd need newsgroups in addition to torrents though. To be honest, the bigger problem for me these days is that there's simply too much to download, the space necessary for all the potentially interesting stuff I could but ultimately actually don't download. It's like a freaking candy store, and you've already eaten so much that your stomach hurts.

Or maybe I should just reduce the number of sites I'm on.

I do believe you have to donate to get access to SCC?

You're not supposed to pay for nzb's.

Sort descending:

Collections:
http://nzbindex.nl/groups/?sort=releaseCount&desc=1

Size:
http://nzbindex.nl/groups/?sort=size&desc=1

NZBIndex indexed 791 groups totaling 6.84 PB

80.442.074 collections
283.495.395 files
19.221.962.805 parts

Want to know the best part? NZBIndex aren't indexing all groups.

The only thing you should pay for is your NSP, only a lazy noob would actually pay for nzbs.

How did you work that out?

Consider yourself very lucky. Quite often I search everything I know of -- usenet, bittorrent, ed2k, file-hosting sites, video hosting sites, etc -- and still come up empty.

-- and that's just for videos. The vast majority of books never even get released on P2P, so it's extremely rare that I ever find a book that I'm looking for online. (Fortunately the copyright cartel has not *yet* shut down brick-and-mortar public libraries.)
