    Same for me, + limewire and IRC channels, then torrents. There was a golden age in the 2000s where you’d see new albums and movies get released before they even came out, and in relatively good quality too.

    This is anecdotal, but everyone I meet born after 2000 has no idea what torrents are, or how to share media, and many of them are paying for like 3 streaming services. They have no idea all this stuff is available for free without much effort, and with better quality.
