Hello all,

I've heard many times that IRC can be incredibly useful for piracy, but I've never tried using it. Can someone recommend some IRC servers that I could join? I'm especially interested in joining servers that distribute TV shows.

Thank you!

Usenet is the best place for TV shows. IRC is good for smaller file sharing like ebooks, comics, roms, etc

Reminds me of the good old days, rizon dot net is still up, might have some channels for TV shows.
