So I've not seen it mentioned before, but if you want to start getting into private trackers, you can check out the private tracker general thread (/ptg/) on the /g/ board of 4chan

4chan is what it is, but there is a lot of good info in just the OP (please read the OP entirely before posting, I beg of you), and that's how I got into private trackers

PS: you wont get any invite, dont ask for them

And yet these places succeed in creating true archives because they don't allow free loaders

People​ who think like you do so because you don't appreciate the effort that's put into creating an environment where torrents don't die.

From those top sites stuff can then be spread via people making requests at more accessible trackers.

What's the evidence that they managed that because they were closed?

Keeping torrents alive and allowing free downloads aren't necessarily related
