r/Piracy

Im looking for ways to download popular music in bulks based by genre, like for example:

- I know that I will be needing good amount (200 tracks) of the most popular Hip Hop & Rap music, so I would like to download some sort of Top 100 Rap songs of all time or like Top 300 best Hip Hop songs...

But I do not know the songs in this genre by name so I would not know which ones are the good ones, and I dont have time to learn them, so I would like to get them all.. Can anyone help me?

I cant stream them on the spot, so I must come prepared with downloads.

Only one condition - must be at least in 320kbps bitrate. Anything less is not supported in this case.

Thank you 🫶🏼

A recent UK High Court "omnibus" order reportedly grants Hollywood studios the power to block rotating networks of pirate sites, without the need to link them to known pirate brands.

The order is a response to rapid domain-hopping and other evasion tactics of pirate site operators.

However, aside from the Motion Picture Association's brief description in a WIPO submission, the order itself remains under wraps.

So I’ve been using loader.to since mp3juices.cc went down a few years back, but as of recently, loader.to redirects me to loader.fo and it just doesn’t work. Does anybody know a free online YouTube to mp3 downloaded?

Hello, so Mexico will soon be found with a new law, where if you dont connect your phone with your personal information you will lose access to a ton of your phones features, most importantly all the call lines. Has anyone found a way to bypass giving my information and not having the whole "destroy my cell phone" thing happen?

Might be more appropriate to post this thread in r/cordcutters or something, but the only thing cooler than smoking cigarettes is crime.

Jokes aside they were paying nearly $400/m for 200mbs internet and cable. Cut that shit by half real quick by switching ISPs and getting them a DirecTV package, then tossed the cable boxes and got them new TVs and FireSticks.

My mother has mostly gotten the hang of it, but the switch from a classic TV remote with numbers to using a d-pad and selecting apps broke my father's brain or something idk. I've tried to teach him numerous times but he's getting up there so there's only so much I can do.

What I'd really like to do is make ...a cable box with IR remote with a numpad lmao. AFAIK, custom OS's on FireSticks and Smart TV's in general is a no go. So I'm thinking an old pc or pi2 or something with an 8tb HDD connected. Are there any Linux distro's out there perhaps that are designed with this kinda of setup in mind? Hell, can I even navigate a PC with an IR remote lol?

I'm aware of Plex and Jellyfin, but I think even that might be too much for him. Plus I don't really see the need to stream when I can fit every episode of The Andy Griffith Show and Leave it to Beaver on a thumb drive. Is there something like VLC for Smart TV's maybe?

Sorry if this post just sounds like I'm yapping. Any fellow pirates in the same boat, have any suggestions?

I'll be real, while money used to be the biggest factor for me, now it's convenience.

As a kid I was obviously broke and torrented a lot. There was a period in between then and now where I stopped and was paying for a bunch of different streaming services.

I properly started torrenting again last year and the reason was because I got absolutely fucked off with shows constantly getting moved around streaming platforms and having to maintain all these different subscriptions.

Setup my first media server last summer and I'm never looking back. Having everything in one place is amazing. But realistically with the amount I've spent on drives, the server PC I bought, cloud backups etc, I ain't recouping my costs that would've gone into subscriptions for a while lol.

A coalition of thirteen major publishers has won a massive $19.5 million default judgment against shadow library Anna's Archive.

A New York federal judge fully approved the publishers' requests, issuing a broad permanent injunction that orders more than twenty specific global registries, hosts, and service providers to immediately disable the site's remaining domains.

So I am an old time book hoarder, started with a small collection in the early 2000s of a few 100 books. Some I'd scanned myself. As time went by it got easier and easier to find new books. Woohoo, great.

As years went on, slowly more and more book packs (IRC ebookz etc) got to be rife with crap I don't want. Low effort romance/erotica crap they pump out by the 100 if not 1000 for the Amazon algo. I'm not talking Harlequin or legit romance publishers, those are not my thing but hey - I'll happily include them in my collection.

The crap I'm talking about you recognize when you see it: half naked bodybuilder on the cover, formulaic title like "Billionaire daddies temptress" or some BS. If you've seen a book pack in the last decade, you know what I mean.

I stopped collecting in like 2010-2015 mostly because of this, and I'm now trying to catch up so to speak but the problem has just gotten worse. Much worse. I just grabbed a TB (750K or so books) from various places that cover the years I'm missing and I swear 50%+ is crap.

WHAT DO? There's not enough hours in the day to manually sort all of it.
