I miss japanese p2p like you wouldn't believe.
People gave them a lot of shit for being obsucre and hard to use but once you got the hang of it, it was a goldmine of content. Every comiket, you knew every major release was going to be there on the first day.
Japan is a domestic antipiracy phenomenon, they have managed to completely eradicate that kind of software and all the people that used to upload rips/scans/etc are gone with nobody to replace them, it's like the concept of buying and sharing something on the internet no longer exists there. So many old rare files lost forever too. People who used to pirate are either scared and try to act like saints.
Now it's all other asians and us all the work.

i feel like spoonfeeding but fuck you guys

PD is overrated, even back in the day Chinx and their eMule servers mogged PD. And unlike PD you didn't needed node bullshit, impossible queues and retarded workarounds.

>>48668035
Yeah, but gaijins rip the most popular shit. PD, Share and Winny had the super obscure stuff. That xvid-encoded fetish jav form early 00s? If nobody preserved it from back in the day it would likely never get ripped in the future.

It was full of CP.

And when PD stopped being prevalent people started uploading their niche stuff elsewhere. There's nothing special about it beyond the nostalgia you have for it.

Not the japanese ones, they just stopped completely.

People talk about how piracy is invincible while shit like this has happened.

PD never had anything h-manga/doujin related that I couldn't find elsewhere. The most use I got out of it's 40 gb that it took up on my hard drive was finding a bakky jav (turned out to be shit) that wasnt in the torrent collection and couldnt be found anywhere else.

>>48681706
sure is

Because everything shared by japanese uploaders landed on sadpanda.
>>
>>48668004
About a decade ago I used to utilize PD/Winny/Shre to get all sorts of obscure manga. It was great. How is the security on them these days? Does your ISP know everything you download?
>>
>>48691467
ISPs outside Japan don't even know what that is nor they have resources to monitor traffic on these networks. Even Japanese ones don't see shit because traffic is encrypted.

Share was superior.

>>48696443
naw dawg

>>48696443
Share doesn't have the kind of file retention PD has, tons of files stuck forever
