Title: demonoid shut down

damnit, they always had great torrents. first torrentspy shuts down its features for US residents, then oink shuts down, now this. it's tough, but the record industry is mentally challenged if they think they can stop torrents from being spread

Fuck, no way!  I finally got a membership on demonoid!  It's so hard unless you get an invite!  They had just about every single torrent!

a torrent file is something you open in a bittorrent client. it tells your computer to listen to trackers, or servers that keep track of other people who are using the torrent file. they all have some or all pieces of the bigger file of what you\\\'re trying to get. everyone pools it together and you grab pieces from whoever you can connect to. the more peers, the faster it goes.

Haha that is, except whenever I finish a torrent I almost immediately stop seeding it and I delete it.  So I basically cut the other climbers' rope.

Christ does the same as I. I'm afraid I too am a rope cutter, except I think of it as smiling and waving while they fall too. To give it a personal touch.


I don't really like torrent much anymore, because it's hard to find a good one with lots of seeds since Oink closed. I was never part of Demonoid though.

fuck all the membership bullshit, www.Isohunt.com (http://www.isohunt.com/) thats all you need, if it isn't on there; then it probably isn't anywhere.

i do like isohunt, but they also have a lot of fake/bogus releases.

the reason for the membership communities is mostly quality control. people liked oink and demonoid because their uploaders only released legit content. isohunt is responsible for the fake daft punk alive 2007 leak

really, I've never ran into a bad torrent there. but i can see why a membership community could be good.
