IsoHunt is my fav lost tracker. KAT was great too, but not as old

Demonoid and Pirate Bay when it was new were inspiring to us as high schoolers, waffles and bacon bits rip. What a great trip it has been… and will continue to be.

I remember wading past the GIFs to get stuff on "Pirates of the UK".
I remember everyone jumping on a "Work Print" of Star Wars episode 3. It had massive timers obscuring the screen and was largely unwatchable, but it didn't stop Lucasfilm shutting down a bunch of sites in response (never getting the original suspect, I seem to recall)

I remember "Tha Forum" where tons of cool shit got posted. You could browse the threads there and just find cool shit to download.

I also miss really minimal and fast public trackers like mininova. It was so fast to load an search. In general I miss when piracy websites were just good, minimal, fast websites. They were all function.

I've never really gotten back into curating my music collection since what.cd got shut down. Honestly I don't even listen to music as much anymore.

I miss Oink's Pink Palace and then What.CD

AsianDVDClub for me... The real one, not the bad attempt that's popped up since.

I still have dozens of proper full ISO rips of really good hard to find stuff on DVD and Blu-ray... Nothing else fills that tiny weeaboo part of my black little heart.
