Is Your Favorite Game the Most Pirated Game of the Year?

Stream Video Torrents

I’m not really into a streaming solution for videos that are available as torrents because I prefer to download the video to have the option to play it whenever I like and not in the instant it starts playing during the download. It could be however an interesting option to preview the video before downloading [...]

TV Shows are one of the most popular media that get downloaded from Bittorrent. It’s very handy for viewing missed episodes of a favorite tv show or to view tv shows in their original language and not the translated version that fails to catch the spirit of the original show.

Fake Torrent Finder

Fake torrents are spread into the system by organizations for two reasons. The first and in my opinion dominant one is to unsettle the torrent users by lowering the rate of successful downloads.

In addition to this the trackers that spread the fake torrents are recording every bit of information they can get their hands on.
