581:-:- This just goes to show how important a traffic ranking is. You can't argue with numbers. :-) I've found quite a few sites that I never knew were popular till I examined their Alexa rankings. The Alexa traffic rankings are certainly not the best, but they should and for the most part do coincide with what one would see from google insight.

After finalizing this article I realized that it already existed and was deleted. I believe the 2006 deletion decision was good as the old article was indeed no more than a list of links. I hope the new article will prove more useful and with greater substance. Please help make this article better by

There are way too many private trackers. In my knowledge there are least at two Danish , three German, one
Norwegian, four or five Chinese (Depends on the status of ROC), one Korean, one Vietnamese, two Thai, one Malaysian, one Indonesian, two Brazillian, one Argentinan, one Chilean, one French, one

Since sites like torrentz are actually search engines, rather than sites actually hosting torrents, shouldn't we differentiate such sites? However, I don't know if there are other search engines in the list. A new column could be created if there are many such sites in the list. Otherwise they could

Hello there. I have several requests for this article: 1. Could someone please complete with the required information the blanks of the sites that I recently added here? (Academic

The
Section of "illegal content" is unnecessary as copyright infringing material can be found on nearly all torrent sites. The one site that was labeled as not hosting illegal torrents reads as such when 'Terminator' was searched for: "Are you trying to download terminator? It can be dangerous and

Can we find some other rating apart from the Alexa traffic rank? It totally does NOT qualify as a rating for how good (define good...) a torrent site is IMHO. As an example, Demonoid, Isohunt and even the Pirate Bay are often used and named in various torrent sites and articles however there Alexa

There has been some criticism of Alexa and I agree that it is not a determinate in selecting the "good" but is a good factor to take into consideration. I don't like that their information is collected in a spyware fashion, but their results are pretty close to what one would expect. I've been

but a few others will probably also index in this new way in a few weeks. The new way those sites index content is that they crawl the ENTIRE internet... and then sort content and split internet content from torrents. So you directly download a torrent that is somewhere in the

updating the Alexa rankings every once in a while and will have to say that they are pretty accurate in my opinion. The pirate bay is listed first, isohunt third and demonoid sixth. Since
Isohunt's switch to legal content it's alexa rank has fallen while demonoid's has risen substantially.
931:
This removal seems hasty to me, considering all of the other sites are listed according to sources that predate the KAT takedown. That "the site may not come back" is neither here nor there - do we remove TPB from this list every time they get taken down? Since KAT was inarguably the biggest

Failing that, several of these entries are only (trivially) sourced to Alexa, which means that the feature are not sourced. As such, I'm announcing my intention to remove any entries that do have either a
Knowledge article or a reliable sources that describes the website's features, per

Good points. I have to pull back my earlier comment (IP:80.101.173.84). When I look at it now the figures much more match my experience. Maybe the figures where weird at that time or wrongly updated or my eyesight was poor. Something like a google ranking would also be good though.

Hi everyone! I have a request for you. There's several missing BitTorrent sites on this article which I have already added but it appears that someone deleted them. These are: Library
Genesis, Sound Park World, Games Torrents, Academic Torrents and 32pag.es. Please reply! Thanks!
444:
I guess this makes sense. Where do you think we should take this article? We can consider adding more columns. Any other ideas? I don't know how you provide references to most features in a comparison. This is an inherent issue with all "Comparison" type articles.
428:
There are lots of articles describing all aspects of BitTorrent as a technology and cultural phenomenon, including legal issues, I think. I think we should try to focus on the actual article topic, rather than posting general torrent information.

cause a copyright infringement notice, so you might be prosecuted (read our
Lawsuits Cases section). We would recommend you to use a special program TorrentPrivacy to avoid that. It allows you to be anonymous in bittorrent networks."
818:
Yes, it would be interesting to cover, but they are pain in ass to document. Do we only include
English sites? or also foreign sites? Do we seperate them to make more comprehensible table or what? How about dead sites?
479:
another regular indexer or in a private site... it doesn't matter, it's like a Google but dedicated for torrent files and they need huge ressources because they directly index all the sites to search for .torrents.
754:
I would propose a limit on this list given by the sites Alexa rank. My proposition is that if the rank of the site is currently over 500,000 it will be removed from the list. What do you guys think? --

I would say that something that needs to be done, is that the alexa rankings need to be coded so that they automatically update themselves, instead of relying on users to do that. (
768:
I would normally think stopping at rank 500,000 is fine, but I think the Legit
Torrents link is nice to see (not all BitTorrent sites are 'bad'), even though it is below 500k. --

Isohunt is legally only content with isohunt lite as of 2010-04-05 after their court mandate to remove all infringing content. Isohunt no longer hosts torrents.
