I love piracy and seeders
A niche band from Asia I loved as a teenager disbanded in the early 2000s. Due to legal reasons their work is in forever limbo, no Spotify, official YouTube etc. Best you can get is 2nd hand CDs on online marketplaces for a premium.
One guy was seeding a 4GB torrent over on PirateBay from 2008 with every song, music video, numerous interviews etc. Reasons like this is why pirating needs to stay alive. Legend made me want to seed it with him longterm. Now we're 2 seeders strong.
Keep sailing pirates, and whenever possible please seed.
EDIT: For those asking the band is the Japanese band Malice Mizer. The torrent in question is https://thepiratebay.org/description.php?id=4158529 And I love seeing how a few of you guys know the band and getting hit by nostalgia. Enjoy

Meanwhile my torrent of Thee Michelle Gun Elephant is stuck at 31.9% because that's all that's available.
Story of my life with torrents, really. I just want the old and obscure, the stuff you can't find anymore. But it always seems to be all about the latest popular shit, sadly.
I hear usenet is good for obscure stuff.
Have you tried private trackers?
Edit: or soulseek?
I'm searching on the Seeker app but use Nicotine+ on desktop.
(this is like oldschool p2p, those are live clients and searching at other times may reveal more or less)
Private trackers are not worth it at all. Getting into main stuff is way too hard and open signups are pure luck. Even people who used top tier private trackers for over a decade now openly admit they wouldn't bother with it if they were starting from scratch today.
I've been on Torrentday for 12 years. It's been worth my time, in fact I get most of my content there. These days I have it set up with the *arrs, it's the main source of torrents, alongside usenet as well. Guess it all depends. General trackers can be great.
Quite the contrary, I'd redo the tests for RED or OPS in a heartbeat. The fact that require potential invitees to put forth a bit of effort to join generally weeds out the people who aren't going to put in the effort to maintain their account or ratio.
Spent maybe 1 hour reading the training material for both sites. Passed OPS first time, RED second. Maintaining a good standing on either will generally be enough to get you into anything else.
I was a denier for a few years too until I just sucked it up and made an attempt. Couldn't pay me enough to switch back now.
I used to be on Demonoid and some other JAV trackers but they shut down and I'm too lazy to bother with waiting to join another. Never really was into music enough to track (hah!) a private tracker and honestly I think it's not in the spirit of torrents. But I appreciate the recommendations nonetheless :)
Soulseek is freely open and barely even requires a login if you ever want to look.
