RE: Suprnova.org is closing down! :( by DJeX on 12-20-2004 at 07:08 AM Just found out about SuprNova today. It seems there all going down slowly. Youceff Torrents don't work any more either. RE: Suprnova.org is closing down! :( by -dt- on 12-20-2004 at 07:13 AM torrentbits.org (the best private torrent traker) died too , but it seems like it wasnt because of the MPAA or the RIAA it was just because of redbeards (the owner) life at the moment or something RE: Suprnova.org is closing down! :( by Weyzza on 12-20-2004 at 07:23 AM

This is a pretty big blow to the torrent community, I personally love the whole idea behind it (for a perfectly legal example, when neowin has news on video games vids, a lot of times u can download them via torrents.... pretty sweet) RE: Suprnova.org is closing down! :( by -dt- on 12-20-2004 at 03:30 PM
Theres quite a few smaller torrent sites ( filelist and ET) that tons of people from the shutdown torrent sites are joining . RE: Suprnova.org is closing down! :( by user27089 on 12-20-2004 at 04:38 PM I heard this too, all of the torrents are slowly disappearing, but in a way, it will be more business for people who own Napster and stuff anyway ... Sharing files isn't a good thing, and I completely disagree with Band Aid 20 being allowed to be shared... RE: Suprnova.org is closing down! :( by .blade// on 12-20-2004 at 05:10 PM

RE: Suprnova.org is closing down! :( by user27089 on 12-20-2004 at 05:13 PM Personally, i've never actually used bit.torrents at all, I've never found them good to download things, i've always used stuff like kazaa, i'm not too sad about the whole thing happening... just more business for others I suppose .

I don't know if this is against forum rules but we or I should start a thread with all the active and working torrent search sites. RE: Suprnova.org is closing down! :( by user27089 on 12-20-2004 at 08:31 PM

saw this on neowin. RE: Suprnova.org is closing down! :( by Menthix on 12-20-2004 at 09:47 PM
Hmmm, it's still supposed to be accessible? I only get time-outs and connection refused . I hope Xeem will work out. The SuprNova ppl created Xeem a while ago, it's simulair to their site but doesn't need a central server, because all torent files will be saved on some kind of P2P network. It's currently in beta stage, if it gets public then there is now way RIAA/MPAA can shut it down. Like KaZaA they could only get after individual users . RE: Suprnova.org is closing down! :( by Nitemistress on 12-20-2004 at 11:15 PM Sorry to hear about Suprnova but as a very good alternative and one I use a lot, Phoenix.

Sry to hear about this, I wish there was something I could do to help keep the site up. RE: Suprnova.org is closing down! :( by FrozernFire on 12-21-2004 at 04:30 PM that's gonna hit the network hard. though i tried bittorrent yesterday, i had it uninstalled 10min later. it's taking up too much bandwidth RE: Suprnova.org is closing down! :( by user27089 on 12-21-2004 at 04:39 PM
quote: It may not be declared illegal, but the content is in fact illegal, therefore making the site illegal due to its content, and if you post a link to that site which has the illegal content on, then I'm pretty sure that its against the rules?

Links to suprnova or similar sites aren't necessarily illegal or against the rules, but many torrent sites make a large amount of dodgy and illegal content available, so let's not spread such links on the MsgPlus Forums.

RE: Suprnova.org is closing down! :( by Kryptonate on 12-26-2004 at 12:09 AM
Bittorrents are good for large files, better than Kazaa or Limewire and others. I heard about Xeem too and I hope it will be widely used soon. Everything based on central servers is faced to go down one day, but there will always be new programs and technologies coming out. |
