Before tubes:
Downloading and installing a file-sharing program or a newsgroup reader, and then spend hours learning how to operate said programs or system. Risk getting infected, bogus, or low-quality files. Risk being targeted by some piracy sting operation or have to worry about taking your PC, laptop in for repairs because you have illegal software installed. Very difficult to organize or access the exact type of files you're looking for because so much of the content is incorrectly named or intentionally mislalbeled.
After tubes:
Click play - watch high-quality porn for free - shoot yer load

I agree with this 100%.
Even worse, the tube thing makes money on your stolen content, where the newgroups was just a few geeks swapping porn.
