Demonoid, absolutely! Warez-bb, and many oldschool GeoCities blogs. I remember one that had portable cracks of any programs you could imagine.
DC++ It was just sharing stuff. No search. You connect to someone’s computer, they have a shared folder. You download what you want and move on. Instead of searching for stuff, you discovered it.
This is a good time to introduce the concept of backups. Remember to backup both to local storage and to have a copy that is remote, in case of natural disaster.
TorrentDB. First tracker I participated. Good layout, nice rules. Sad to see it go

ProstoPleer! Russian website with direct mp3 downloads and uploads, playlist creation and sharing, just like the old GrooveShark. I was lucky that I made a backup of all my playlists 2 months before it happened.
