Torrents. You need a decent client app (someone will recommend a PC one, I'm Mac so use Vuze). Then just browse torrent sites for what you want, music, movies, TV shows etc.

Ares was pretty good last time I tried it but, yeah, Torrent is by far the best for P2P atm.

Bearshare and share 360 (which I think are the same) are p2p networks which try and get your card details to activate. I had bearshare on my old PC about 5 years ago so has been around a bit and likely gone LOL
