They actually pre-date the Internet.
Clean and I download everything as fast as my connection can handle (15 meg).

Limewire because you can download the full version for free.

Sober enough to know what I'm doing, drunk enough to really enjoy doing it

http://dcpp.net/ I think it only works over networks at that speed but you can still gain access to it externally.

Newgroups are good. As is IRC. The most practical method for downloading stuff is certainly torrents though. I tend to get very nice speeds on them, it all depends on the SLR and the quality of the tracker though, which is why members sites which enforce registered users uploading or restrict access are the best place to get torrents from.

I typically get speeds of between 500 and 900 KB (that's Kilobytes not Kilobits, would be 4-7.2Mbps) on torrents from members sites, that's on a 24Mb line.

Also in case you are tempted to download illegal content, something I would never dream of doing, you are somewhat protected. Since in signing up for a members site where members must declare that they are not affiliated with any law enforcement agencies.

I use Azureus, but it's a resource hog. I do like a lot of the options it has and the Java plugins are handy. Bitcomet is pretty good too.
