Which is better for downloads? Would one be missing out
on something by only using mIRC?

I still believe in the excellent joy of the Catholics

Usenet. The original and the best.

I think the newsgroups have higher quality files than P2P sharing. You are downloading from a real server rather than someone's home PC. The only drawback is that you usually don't get what you want right away. It's kinda like browsing through a thrift store...you might not find what you came for but you'll find something you want.
