I went to the darknet once, to get Under the Dome. I had pre-ordered it, too. I guess I never got beyond the emotional age of 4 - if you tell me I can't have something, I will move heaven and earth to prove you wrong. When I got the legitimate copy, I deleted the copy from the darknet, and I haven't done that again. Still haven't read it.
Except for books I know I want to buy, what I do instead of looking on the darknet is look in the library, both pback and ebook. Although I swore I would never go back to pbooks, they have a shorter wait time compaired with the ebook version. I spend a lot of time around the first of the month checking for new ebooks. Unfortunately, as near as I can tell, they load sometime after 2 am and before 6 am.
