Soulseek is still really useful, especially after the crackdown on Megaupload/Mediafire/Rapidshare.
For niche and obscure music, it's always been superior to torrenting IMO.

Trust me, I've purchased plenty of used CDs or other formats on eBay or Amazon and will gladly do so again rather than bother with the hunt on Soulseek or other sources of unlicensed downloads. But in the end, as "entitled" as it may make me, I'd rather resort to copyright infringement than never find a copy of that (song/album/etc) from the tape or CD I lost in college that's just not available anymore.
