In scanning the replies, I haven't seen any reference to these: what about non-network methods of download like mIRC and FTP (I guess technically mIRC has networks)?
I generally hit up indexing services like packetnews or oth to find downloads (for mIRC or FTP servers, respectively). Is there some secret evil (other than the dirty feeling of piracy) to these or are they just less well-known?
Between the two of these and SoulSeek, I can find just about anything I'm looking for, including full 192+ kbps album rips.
And as a plug to those of you who enjoy live music, check out the scads of SHN/FLAC BT downloads at bt.etree.org.
