- Melting_Harps 7y agoWho do you use? I had Cox because they were the only one left offering usenet (albeit capped). I was a really late adopter to torrents because of my background in usenet, sometime around 2010 all the alt.binaries I used to frequent went dead or were broken with little par2 support. It was a great time back in the early 2000s, though. If I'm honest, I don't download as much as I used to, but I do miss the niche communities based on those groups, though. They have since moved to IRC but for the most part its all gone from what I can tell.
