I use EZTV for pretty much all my tv torrents. Besides the occasional downtime for DDoS attacks or whatnot, I've never had a problem with them. Easier to browse than a tracker like piratebay.

I get web page not available with a sad face.

Yeah it is still blocked though. There is apparently a flag waving at the site, but I can't resolve the host name even.

Piratebay went down for everyone about a week ago, they finally raided their servers.

Pirate bay is blocked in Australia apparently. There's another reason.

I agree with everything Atelo said and would like to add - When it comes to any applications I find they are easier to find on private trackers for a few reasons.
-They are what they say they are (not fakes), I don't have to download 5 different ones trying to find what I want.
-Usually don't have virus's hidden in them.
- The keys or cracks included in them actually work.

Public trackers like Pirate bay usually have a huge list of crap to choose from and you have to choose wisely.. usually based on how many seeders there are. Private ones usually keep it down to one version of each resolution, so you don't spend time searching through pages and pages of different torrents to find the one you want.

Public trackers are also monitored by the big companies so they can send random threats of lawsuits and demand compensation or court. Sure, the chance of this happening is low, but if you can reduce your chances further with a private tracker, why not?

TV Torrents was really good too in that you could set up lists so you could see whenever your favorite shows were out. They also often have RSS feeds so you can set up automatic downloads of said shows.

Of course, they often have ratios, but I don't usually mind leaving a torrent client to seed and build credits.

Why not just use piratebay?

I still have 1 more Acid-Lounge, some for RevTT and Waffles of course. Those are the only ones I still have active, surprised they still work to be honest, I haven't used them in quite some time.

[quote="Dartagn"]I only have access to music trackers anymore, all of my best software and video ones have been shutdown.

I can reciprocate anyone with a badass video, software (games is what I can't find now) or dedicated ebook invite with one to waffles.fm (music, software, ebooks, no video.)[/quote]

I'm still on Waffles, it's a good site.
