Hmm if that's your effort don't be pm'ing me again about utorrent and how to run it etc. Good day to you sir
Special mention to you too Hashman for your help too. (NOW INVITE ME TO THIS SECRET TORRENT CLUB MICKS TOLD YOU ABOUT ) And how the **** did you get modded too.
The first rule of the secret club is newbies don't get invites so I've none to give... But I'll try doubt it'll work though. as for being a mod ... I was the peoples choice <michaelwasntimpressed>
I use IPtorrents.com but they have taken away all our free invites, need to donate $10 to get a free invite - bit like the Catholic church in their 'donations' the cheeky bastards.
Michael ... I'm touched. You used your last invite on me p.s. good thinking saying they need a donation , we don't need huns or stopme on that site
Cheers for the info, bookmarked it in case it opens to new members in the future. The best thing about these private sites is they are very strict on quality of the uploads, no crap on them.
Freeeeeeeeeetards Just joking, I do a bit of downloading myself even if it is limited only to US pace TV shows
I just use rapidshare and various other places that directly link to mediafire or rapidshare. Works a treat for what I need, mainly obscure music from obscure secret places.
Here is a very interesting blog post on the issue. I especially like where it talks about measures like this turning sites like TPB into heroes. It seems that the thing governments do best is turning men into martyrs. http://www.openrightsgroup.org/blog/2012/what-they-want-is-control
I used to think like you, but the reason the private torrent sites work brilliant vs the Pirate Bay is that everyone has to share - so you go to a wee bit of an effort to set up your files to share on a dedicated seeding machine, then you don't really have to worry about it forever after. For instance I've got a little Network Attached Harddrive which has Bittorrent built into it, so I leave that turned on all day seeding all the things I've downloaded without having to use computers etc to share back. My current ratio is Uploaded:4.11 TB, Downloaded:351 GB - so basically I can download everything I want at about 10x the speed of public torrent sites and not really have to worry about downloading too much, as the little hard drive turned on all the time shares more than I could ever download.
Good news: I've got an invite to give away for torrentday.com which is fantastic for movies and tv shows (mainly US). Bad news: you'll have to risk pming me your email address if you want it
