I have the fortune to be of the “Lan-party” generation and still have a big group of people i know keep ageold games, movies, etc.
So if i need something i can usually get it from them… then it’s a matter of VPN into their network and use ftp.
But usually i don’t really look for old stuff. But thats a “me” thing. I know this will not work for everyone… also, yeah despite the retention being “only” 13 years, i do find stuff that got reupload quite usually.
I am searching for very old audiobooks and i still find most of them on usenet despite some of them being well over 20 years old now.
Speed is unfathomably fast though. I have a 1gbit/s connection at home and i can download with ~900 mbit/s through the VPN
I am with you here when it comes to older stuff
