Torrents for me been using them for ages, I did try rapidshare and newsgroups, but it's hard to find what you want.

Newsgroups all the way for me, do use rapidshare for somethings but try to avoid torrents like the plague

Usenet (Newsgroups) but I'm finding myself sometimes fallng back onto a few private torrent sites for stuff I can't find on Usenet.

IRC used to be great but these days it's too much hassle compared to other file transfers methods.

Regarding Ratio Master, if it's a decent private server then don't use it, I used it once on a superb private server and was banned within hours
