File finding website

[navyceals]

I'm sure most of you have your own particular p2p programs and most of you have heard of bit/utorrent, but this site sounds like it may have potential. Basically it's a search engine that searches everything on the internet for torrent files on what your looking for. It's currently being sued by Hollywood, which is why I heard about it. But it doesn't even offer you the downloads, it just finds them for you (and then you can "choose" to click on them to start the download), so Hollywood is going to have a hard case lol.

I've only started one partial download, so I don't really know if it's that good. That particular one didn't seem to be going very fast (it was a movie). But if either you have a hard to find movie or a new release (to theatres lol), i'd suggest typing it in and seeing if it finds anything! Since it's just a search engine you don't have to download anything to test it, but to download you'll have to install utorrent or a similar program.

Let me know how you find it! isohunt.com/

There are many sites like this; they're torrent hosts. IsoHunt, PirateBay, TorrentSpy, TorrentReactor, MiniNova, BiteNova... I like TorrentSpy currently, but I've had good luck with MiniNova and PirateBay too. Firefox has a nice plugin called the Torrent-Bar, with which you can search all the major torrent-host sites for what you're looking for.

BitComet is my client of choice, but I've heard good things about Azureus and uTorrent.

PirateBay got raided yesterday.

I like Demonoid a lot too.

Good ones:

Torrentbox.
Demonoid.
Torrent Damage.

Iso hunt has too little seeders.

Don't you need to pay to have a membership in the nova ones..?

BitLord and Azureus are the good ones. You can control the connection ports and stuff..

...find what Navy?

How you find it. If you like it. What your opinion is of the site.

the pirate bay is back online, i dont use it though because i find other sites have more seeders
favourite sites are isohunt (which is canadian by the way, the webmaster is from richmond and he is directly being sued by the MPAA)
torrentspy
and torrent jabberwalker because that puts your search up on the top 6 torrent search engines and give you the top 10 results from each of those 6 sites on one page.

and the things is that these sites are not illegal necessarily because they do not hold any copyrighted material, they just direct your torrent program to where it can find whatever it is you are looking for.

jabberwalker is fantastic, sorts by seeding so you can get the fastest download.
