It's not about paying. Although some private trackers have "donations" that allow you to stay even if you don't seed. Normally, private trackers require you to maintain a certain seed ratio. If you don't, you lose membership. This is why these trackers have high download speeds.
Furthermore, it's difficult to get into one because it's an invite-only system, and if I invite someone who then later loses membership due to not seeding enough, I am also kicked out as a result.
Getting into a private tracker involves monitoring their homepage, every single day, to see if they temporarily open membership signups, which happens rarely, and the quota is quickly exhausted. Another way is to know someone who is already in and has the ability to invite you.
Failing that, the second best option are heavily moderated trackers. One of the best ones right now is a Russian tracker, rutracker dot 0rg. You need to use google translate to make sense of it. These trackers are still not as safe as private ones though, since users are allowed to upload torrents, so you can end up with malware. But still much better than completely open, unmoderated trackers.
