Usually the best way to find language specific content is to join a private tracker that focuses on the given language. I don't know if Spanish is like that too, but it's worth checking out.
If it’s private, how do you join it?!
It depends. My native language tracker forexample opens up for signups at Christmas time every year, making it easy to join. Outside of that I believe you can just make an application and depending on how good it is, you'll be accepted.
But this is different from tracker to tracker, so I can't say how it is exactly for your language. But what is pretty much standard for all private trackers is that you can get an invite if you know someone already there.
That's what I was aiming for.. Until I realised that most private trackers in my language are pretty high up the chain and I don't have the time to bother with it.
You can also find a lot of public trackers or DD directories in foreign countries too.
It heavily depends on the language. Scandinavian languages, for example, are too small to have DD or public trackers while something like German might not exist as public tracker due to the harsh copyright laws (can't vouch for the last one).
It’s true but there are some nice German private trackers. And one I use and like wasn’t that hard to join. But as mentioned, because of the harsh copyright laws, most German content can be more easily found on Usenet or DDL sites
What are you calling a tracker ?
