I don't have speed issues with torrents / soulseek for that tho. Can still be encrypted.
Even so you still have to seed, meet lame ratio rules, hope that old torrents are still seeded etc.
Torrents certainly still have their place, but Usenet is just generally superior in all aspects, and for a few dollars a month the service it provides is unparalleled.
Yeah something payed, closed and not open is certainly better. lol
Clearly you don't understand Usenet, it's open, you can start your own provider and indexer if you like. Nothing stopping you.
I'd rather not, so I pay to support those who do a good job of it.
