Nice! I’ll ditch Nicotine+ in favour of this web client.

I don’t mind some manual activities, the arrs have definitely spoilt me this past year or two, sometimes the hunt is half of the enjoyment.

Appreciate your guidance, was completely unaware of this network before now, gives me Limewire vibes for some reason.

My whole library is on offer, it isn’t too small, hopefully that will be enough to satisfy people.

Probably will continue with torrents alongside, I do like the Lidarr interface.

I’ve shared my entire library, which is reasonably sizeable, whether it contains what people want is another thing…

Have followed your advice and installed Nicotine+

Thanks for this - I was completely unaware of Soalseek.

I now have it installed, with the necessary port forwarding in place, seems relatively straightforward to use. Unfortunately the (perhaps obscure) artists I’m looking for are not well serviced, but I presume it’s a case of checking back from time to time.

What public indexers do people advise for audio?

I am using Lidarr, so the pool of options is somewhat limited. Naturally it would be preferable to have access to one or two private trackers, such as Redacted or Orpheus, but life is what it is (invites are understandably hard to come by).

 

I am very green when it comes to private trackers, but understand there are strict expectations on members in terms of seed ratios, etc.

My current setup is such that I am now well placed to seed longterm, as such I have considered how best to go about becoming a member of one or two trackers.

Initially I would like to try for Racing4Everyone - I’m really into my motorsport, but only have limited access to content via traditional means.

What are the general methods to apply in order to become a member of these trackers, or is it more or less impossible unless they open up briefly?
