That would be a "NAND" Gate as far as I know.

I get what you are saying about paying someone who doesn‘t own the content.

However I‘d argue that you are not paying them for the content, but just for hosting it on their servers. So its more like a tool, as is your VPN if you are torrenting. And most people wouldn‘t mind paying a VPN just to pirate content.

Usenet, I agree, might take you some time to get invites to the good indexers, especially if you don‘t want to pay immediately, but in the long run it‘s definitly worth it.

I havn‘t played arround with torrents for quite some time, whats the most popular setup for torrents atm?
