The Pirate Bay is popular for its large community, which ensures at least one seeder on almost any torrent on the site, no matter the age. We tried downloading obscure titles from even over a decade ago, and we found that there were still happy seeders to help out.
You can also look at our list of Pirate Bay alternatives for more options. RARBG is a large directory of torrents, famous for a very active community of seeders and high-quality torrents. Its library size is decent, and it gets updated often, meaning that you have a high chance of finding new torrents on the site. The only difference is that ad intrusion is more annoying on RARBG, so take that into account when choosing one of the two. There are a lot of phishing scams going around with RARBG-looking sites, so make sure you learn about secure browsing.
Website: X website. Some people use it to browse for game torrents as well, but from our research, it does look like both RARBG and The Pirate Bay have more torrents in that category, especially for older titles. A few years ago, X was a bad choice for any torrenting, since it was clunky to navigate and it posed a lot of security risks. Since then, it went through an entire site revamp , making it seamless to browse and safer.
For shows and movies, you also have improved browsing functionalities, like searching by award nomination. Mirrors: x.
Website: Torrentz2 website. While this is not that big of a torrent site — only amassing million users a month, and unable to sport much of a library for general torrents — Torrentz2 is very good for finding music.
Not to mention — any type of browsing options, like searching by album, artist or song would be greatly appreciated. Second, ad intrusion is minimal and the interface is beautiful. Lastly, classics are readily available on the platform. If you want high-definition episodes of your favourite shows, EZTV is the place to go.
We searched for older titles like Two and a Half Men, and it had a decent library of options. We even tried going for more obscure titles, like the British show Midsomer Murders.
EZTV has a large variety of torrents for the new releases in that show, and packages of older episodes. We tried browsing for older titles, and it has a good library, both for PC and consoles.
You can subscribe to different categories or titles and get a feed of new torrents for them. Update: Despite recent claims to the contrary, Zooqle still seems to be up and running. For instance, we received a remark from one of our French readers that Zooqle has been shut down, so we checked with a VPN if it was blocked in France. In all three instances, we were successful. Therefore, we have to conclude that, as of now, Zooqle is accessible to, at least, a great portion of internet users.
Needless to say, we will check this regularly and keep you updated! LimeTorrents is very good for new releases. Mirrors: limetorrents. Not a torrent site per se, Torrends. As it turns out, regardless of if you are torrenting off The Pirate Bay or exclusive, members-only torrent clubs, your IP address is not safe.
Tom Chothia and other computer scientists from Birmingham University conducted a three-year research study in which they found a somewhat astonishing trend: the IP addresses of people who illegally torrent popular content is monitored and recorded within three hours of the download.
As part of their research, Dr. Chothia and his team developed their own BitTorrent tracker that logged all the connections that where made to it. According to their research paper , Dr.
The monitor also requests from trackers the number of seeders and leechers in each swarm. In the process of the just-mentioned data mining, the researchers discovered roughly 10 monitoring companies that were are logging downloader data. Some of these monitors were identified as copyright enforcement firms, researchers, and security firms while the six biggest monitors were unable to be identified because of the way they routed their traffic through third-party services.
