what if you had stayed with your first tracker only?

You are in fact almost exactly describing the first 3 years of my torrenting life on Aradi and yes I was both happier and more content.

Agreed with IdolEyes787 said, demonoid was my first tracker and I was happy with that.

I wouldn't still be on my first site, or second for that matter. My needs drove me to find more sources. True, later, after finding FST, that wasn't all that drove me, curiosity was introduced as well.

My first was Demonoid and I guess I don't fit the norm here. I am quite happy checking 10 sites, to find where I can get the best quality encode of a movie, or juggling 5 different music trackers to find that FLAC/LOG/CUE I want.

But taking into account, that you said if I didn't know any other trackers (and qualities) existed, then yes, I would be happy with my crap 192Kbps mp3 albums and 700MB scene releases

My needs change over time. My first tracker cannot accommodate my needs.

Nice topic OP.

If I would have stayed with my first tracker then I would be seriously limiting myself to only one type of content since it was BCG.

If i had stayed on with my first tracker,i would have had the largest p0rn collection ever and feds looking everywhere to gimme a blowjob.
They open signups faster than swepsycho changes his list of most wanted trackers.Their speeds put ScT to shame. no kidding.
The tracker is T-D. (Too bad it was the only tracker i ever "buffered", and the 800GiB buffer became such a waste. :-/)

I'd have a great ratio that's for sure , sometimes the devil you know is better than the one you don't .

That would be your wants unless the trackers that you're on distribute more than files.

Personally I'm happy if I can just find something relatively entertaining to watch or catchy to listen to. Doesn't even have to be the best copy. Being FLAC or blue-ray as far as I know never improved the script or penned a better melody . Goods good regardless of the encode.

I also think if I ever really needed anything that badly I'd buy it.
