I have that exact USB drive running Ventoy with a few choice ISOs. Very useful.

Torrenting is getting worse and worse these days, I’m learning the ancient art of Usenet.
Exactly. I’m not worried though. There are so many alternatives these days.
I could be wrong but isn’t it essentially impossible to pirate modern versions of Adobe Creative Suite products as they’re now cloud based, meaning the only versions you can pirate are around 10 years old?
So it’s a toasted ham and cheese sandwich?
For me it was the Simpsons when I was a kid and a relative would record it off satellite TV for me. It just carried on from there. I started recording stuff off TV myself, recording music on audio cassettes and eventually copying VHS tapes.
Then I got a PSX console and my parents “knew a guy” who burned games.
After that I heard about Napster and started downloading MP3s on the family PC. When Napster was shut down I moved onto other apps like Kazaa and Limewire.
Then I got a DVD burner. At first I just copied DVDs but when I got broadband I started downloading torrents and burned the files to DVDs.
About 10 years ago I started storing those files on a NAS. Planning on moving to Jellyfin in the next few weeks.
I use a wyse terminal as a torrent downloader and samba server. I stored documents, including my CV on there until recently but started thinking that might be a bad idea. So now I sync those documents between my devices using Syncthing and will soon be installing Jellyfin on that wyse terminal.
