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...

Napster only allows for music downloads.

Anyways, I'm not too happy....oh well, I'll find somewhere else.

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.

One of the admins get back to me on this.

It is against the rules, its endorsing the use of illegal downloads & supplying the links to-do-so :).

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 :).

Just saying the names and URL's of the active torrent sites, isn't agains the forums rules. Since this sites are "legal" until they are declared "illegal". So doesnt violates the forum rules.
