20 years ago I was in college, it was earlyish days of piracy and the net admin had locked down all p2p protocols. I actually used irc bots to cruise file servers and request downloads. Not sure what protocol they were using for file transfer over mIRC but I got a lot of music that way. Netflix was also handy as a DVD burning service but that’s another topic.

Back in the day I used direct connect, we had 100mbit internet (at my university), that was extremely fast back in the day.
