Darknet Diaries is an awesome podcast!!!

Check out private torrent trackers. Look for Orpheous and Redacted, OPH/RED.

All day, everyday! Headphone port and 500GB (minimum) removable microSD are mandatory for me.

CZ would freguently post “4” in response to criticism or allegations. It was his way of saying all of the bad news about him was FUD.

Hopefully he lands in jail, but I don’t think he’ll be coming to the US anytime soon.

Please, let his response be:

4

I usually go to torrents sites.

GazelleGames.net

Apologies. Do you know a better way I can link stuff behind paywalls.

Also, am I being a jerk when I link to Archive? I don’t wanna spread shady links unknowingly.

I just buy the music I want from bandcamp or the band. I can organize and rip whatever and keep it backed up incredibly simply.

Then I put it on whatever device I want to use. Do you remember album/tape/CD collections. It’s like that but digital. The tech gives us all so much more control, it seems a shame to stream from a source like Spotify. Just stream your stuff to yourself, or put it on a tiny piece of silicon.

You can use Spotify like the radio I guess. A really creepy, ultra-payola-driven radio. Why not own some digital media, though? Like pay some artists directly and listen to their content digitally.

Who the fuck really needs Spotify to distribute their content? Maybe shitbags that NEED a corporate entertainment structure to survive. Fuck em.

Spotify isn’t genius. They just created a cultural choke point and they are gonna milk it like a starving baby cow. Having the investment and cooperation of the big labels allows and maintains this lucrative exploitation of creative labor.

Edit: There’s an episode of the Nerdist when some jerk from Linking park was on. He talked about getting royally fucked by the label they were on. That terrible band could not have been drilled into the culture without major label support and payola. They deserve nothing because they are a sacchrine confection of the corporate music industry. They are a golem of mass-market, general-purpose angst. They only positive thing from linking park was the singers suicide.

I would have trouble finding new music without torrent sites. The trackers I use have a web of related artists at the bottom of the artist page.

The users add to the community through comments, uploads, suggestions, organizing, et cetera.

Using a tracker has helped me discover music that ain’t even on Spotify. It’s the tits!

I just download or copy all the music/audio I want to have, and put that all on my phone. Then I listen to it anywhere, anytime.

500GB SDcard is <100$

I haven’t heard of this before! I’ve only glanced at the link you posted, I need time to give it a proper look. I need more hours in a day.

It looks awesome, at a glance!!! Maybe like SoulSeek, but comic nerds? I can’t wait to dive in (skepticism aside). Thanks for the link. It’s been hard to stay in the loop.

Thanks for this. I really miss 32Pages and haven’t really been DLing comics too much. I found a good comic shop near me that fills my needs.

I must have missed that MaM has 0day comic releases. I’ll definitely hop on and seed those.

Didn’t the telecoms receive billions of dollars of public money to build and then own that infrastructure?

I don’t think it’s dying at all. Check out private music trackers like https://redacted.ch/index.php or https://interview.orpheus.network/
