    Cabalo is pretty much on point with everything he posted. Usenet, by far, crushes BT. Hell, if you search around you can find out how to get Usenet axx for free with a little IPv6 tunneling and a free node, so the cost argument people always seem to bring up then becomes meaningless...

    Please do not randomly PM asking for invites as I have none to give out. Have a nice day.

Expecting it makes any difference because all summed up you can get the same content at a dozen other places.
    Nice point. But this problem was not even there in bittorrent say, 3-4 years ago, I want to say about the time like: in 2006-2007..


    And as you said bt is no match for usenet, except for one thing, that people can get stuffs from bt free of cost where as I don't think they can get the same free of cost from usenet.
    As I've a very little knowledge about usenet, pardon me if I do any mistake here, in this post.

    He addressed that point in the "cost-effectiveness" section. As deadalive1 also said, it's possible to get free Usenet access playing around with IPv6, and there are a few IPv4 free servers as well.

    Music trackers. Nuff said.

    But yes, if you're just looking for 0-day stuff and want to skip a ton of drama and the hassle of a seedbox, Usenet would be a good choice.

    Of course you did. On the flip side, I'm sure that has got to be some files on the W's that can't be found through other methods. But What & Waffles are definitely not the end-all music library that so many people make them out to be.

    Yup if BT died today DDL or Usenet would have no problem replacing BT, people will always want to have free content so they will move where they can find it. DDL and Usenet are a lot better for the reasons Cabalo pointed out and may in fact be cheaper for some people that buy a seedbox. I have to buy a seedbox because my upload speed is just plain slow, I also live with many other people that use the internet or game online and I can't be using the internet 24/7 all the time.

    Never used usenet, but out of curiosity and since everyone praise it I wanna ask question: is it possible to find content there like provided on some trackers mentioned in this thread https://filesharingtalk.com/threads/4...iginal-content (for instanse KG, cinematik, CG, sdbits, x264, pedro's, underground-gamer) - and I mean with similar quality too. I practically don't care about countless 0day trackers to which usenet seems to be compared here, but I really like those trackers
