It is a long standing, veteran private tracker and one of the most popular sites indexing Wrestling content. Up until recently, XWT had two other sister sites, XWT-Classics, a wrestling tracker dedicated to classic content, and All4Nothing, a General/0Day torrent site. Well, the XWT family of trackers just got a new member, this time a specialized TV tracker in the name of Torrent-Vision.</p> <span class="fullpost"> <p><a href="http://lh6.ggpht.com/-2OS_RzgT3X4/ULmQCNNI_kI/AAAAAAAAL6E/ehYMrNGf_xI/s1600-h/Torrent%252520Vision%252520Logo%25255B7%25255D.jpg"><img style="background-image: none; border-right-width: 0px; margin: 0px 0px 5px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; display: inline; border-top-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; padding-top: 0px" title="Torrent Vision Logo" border="0" alt="Torrent Vision Logo" src="http://lh4.ggpht.com/-VzEXcf35Ewo/ULmQDidQwBI/AAAAAAAAL6M/MV6LaPlpu88/Torrent%252520Vision%252520Logo_thumb%25255B5%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="462" height="107" /></a></p> <p><a name="3"></a></p> <p>The welcome message on forum gives you a brief idea about what this tracker is all about:</p> <blockquote> <p>Welcome to Torrent-Vision. We are a Dedicated TV Show website that aims to bring you all of the latest shows, packs, classic seasons and much more. </p> </blockquote> <p>The tracker launched just about 2 months ago, and has gained some ground during this time. It currently tracks over 1200 TV torrents, and boasts an impressive registered users base of 7000 members. Indexed content is pretty much what you would expect from a TV tracker; individual episodes of latest shows, and full season packs of previously aired content. Actually, Torrent-Vision already indexes 200+ packs, which is quite an achievement for a two month old private torrent community.</p> <p><a href="http://lh6.ggpht.com/-Cm5bFKfECwA/ULmQGn-2MZI/AAAAAAAAL6U/JwZMBYDTNdc/s1600-h/Torrent-Vision%252520Torrents%25255B7%25255D.jpg"><img style="background-image: none; border-right-width: 0px; margin: 0px 0px 5px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; display: inline; border-top-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; padding-top: 0px" title="Torrent-Vision Torrents" border="0" alt="Torrent-Vision Torrents" src="http://lh3.ggpht.com/-McEkkGdB_qE/ULmQJ1zSVLI/AAAAAAAAL6c/AAEoOT8V4rU/Torrent-Vision%252520Torrents_thumb%25255B5%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="411" height="541" /></a></p> <p>For those of you worried about not being able to maintain a positive ratio due to capped bandwidth or slow upload speeds, good news is this tracker employs a seed points system which rewards you based on the TIME you seed a torrent, with no concern over how much data you actually uploaded: </p> <blockquote> <p>In order to help our site have as many members as possible seeding torrents we have now added Seed Points. <b>This means for every hour that you seed a torrent, you will receive 0.25 points. You can then trade your points for Upload Credit, Invites or a Custom Title!</b> <br />Even if you are not uploading on a torrent, you WILL still receive points. We are hoping this new system will keep our older torrents alive for longer.</p> </blockquote> <p>Currently, Torrent Vision not a TV tracker that can rival the heavyweights such as BMTV, BTN or TvTorrents.com. However, given the success of XWT crews successful tracker portfolio, you can expect good things coming from Torrent-Vision. And of course, signups are still open as of 12/1/2012.</p> <p><strong>Site Name</strong>: Torrent-Vision (<a href="http://torrentvision.net" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">http://torrentvision.net</a>)</p> <p><strong>Signup URL</strong>: <a title="http://torrentvision.net/signup.php" href="http://torrentvision.net/signup.php" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">http://torrentvision.net/signup.php</a></p> </span> TEAM FILEnetworkshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18051427481018961189noreply@blogger.com287tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11317726.post-42033181773483068752012-11-24T09:51:00.001+05:302012-11-24T14:16:25.204+05:30Microsoft Gives Away Windows 8 MC Pack For Free, Pirates Exploit It To Go Legit<p>In our previous article, we talked about how Microsoft’s latest OS Windows 8 can be activated by using a rogue KMS activation server. But it gets even better – Microsoft is running a promotion giving away the Windows 8 Media Center Pack for free. Pirates have found a way to exploit this offer to convert their pirated Windows 8 copies into legitimate copies WITH the MC pack! Yes it does work on pirated copies activated using the rogue KMS method. Proof below:</p> <span class="fullpost"> <p><a href="http://lh6.ggpht.com/-BSO8ypfrVfk/ULBLO2ImL_I/AAAAAAAAL5s/kAS5bHfjxOc/s1600-h/11-24-2012%2525209-27-59%252520AM%25255B5%25255D.jpg"><img style="background-image: none; border-right-width: 0px; margin: 0px 0px 5px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; display: inline; border-top-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; padding-top: 0px" title="11-24-2012 9-27-59 AM" border="0" alt="11-24-2012 9-27-59 AM" src="http://lh6.ggpht.com/-CTl9YLQfrkM/ULBLQg9rm1I/AAAAAAAAL5w/Y9rW5Tl2Mk8/11-24-2012%2525209-27-59%252520AM_thumb%25255B3%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="457" height="202" /></a></p> <p>Exploiting this does not involve running any sort of crack, patch or custom code on the OS. You simply need to visit the Microsoft Media Center <a href="http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows-8/feature-packs" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">offer site</a> on an activated Windows 8 machine (activated legitimately, or otherwise) and enter your E-mail. You should get a product key in your inbox in about 24-72 hours. This product key can be used to upgrade your copy of Windows 8 Pro to Windows 8 Pro + Media Center Pack and can be used when reinstalling Windows as well . Product key ( as of now ) is WGA safe and is considered legitimate. The MC offer is valid till 31st January 2012. Step by step instructions on how to do this is already posted on My Digital Life forums [<a href="http://forums.mydigitallife.info/threads/38661-Activating-Microsoft-Windows-8-Pro-with-media-center-for-free-with-legitimate-key!" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Link</a>]. This has also been covered on high profile publications such as <a href="http://www.theverge.com/2012/11/21/3674706/windows-8-activation-key-pirates" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">The Verge</a> and is pretty much all over the web. Patch this soon Microsoft. You are losing a lot of $$$ here. <br /> <br />Edit: I just went to the offer site on a Windows 7 machine and entered a different E-mail address just for the lulz, and it still said “A key will be emailed within 72 hours”. So this might actually work for anyone with internet access and a web browser.</p> <p>Edit 2 : Whether a fresh reinstall of Win 8 Pro using the MC key will activate the OS after January 31st, 2013, is still unclear. If it doesn’t activate for the MC key directly, you should be able to activate it after first activating Windows against a rogue/legit KMS server and then entering the MC key. In any case, activation is permanent until you decide to reinstall.</p> </span> TEAM FILEnetworkshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18051427481018961189noreply@blogger.com86tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11317726.post-89699764308456414862012-11-15T02:27:00.001+05:302012-11-15T09:58:20.700+05:30Has Windows 8 Really Been Cracked?<p>Whatever tech site you go to these days, the buzzword everywhere is “Windows 8”, latest update to Microsoft’s flagship operating system. I’ve been playing with it for the last couple of weeks and I’ve got to say, although the Metro UI has received a lot of criticism from fans this is a rock solid OS. Just one advice if you are a new user to Windows 8 – don’t give up on the OS based on first impressions alone. The more you use it, the more it will grow on you. Either way, coming back to the most important question if you are a pirate, has Windows 8 really been cracked?</p> <span class="fullpost"> <p><a href="http://lh4.ggpht.com/-Ii0eFYupMEw/UKQFyC1fwqI/AAAAAAAAL5U/GMbVN2xTrg4/s1600-h/Windows%2525208%252520Logo%25255B4%25255D.jpg"><img title="Windows 8 Logo" style="border-left-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; margin-left: 0px; display: inline; border-top-width: 0px; margin-right: 0px" border="0" alt="Windows 8 Logo" align="right" src="http://lh4.ggpht.com/-bL4ADLC_pQM/UKQFz8HMXiI/AAAAAAAAL5Y/Htdb9G8jvYA/Windows%2525208%252520Logo_thumb%25255B2%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="260" height="83" /></a> </p> <p>Probably the most famous “crack'” for Windows 7 and Vista were the BIOS emulation hacks (i.e. DAZ Loader) that emulated the BIOS of an OEM build to fool windows into thinking it was activated. Not only did these hacks work, they even had the capability to pass WGA (Windows Genuine Advantage) online validation as well.<strong> </strong>If you browse file sharing portals such as BitTorrent trackers in search of a cracked copy of Windows 8, you’ll notice that a number of “activators’, cracks and loaders will come up in search results. Unfortunately, a good percentage of these don’t work. </p> <p>As of 14/11/2012, all working rogue activation methods for Windows 8 are based on the “KMS host emulation” method. As you may know, Windows has a Key Management Service (KMS) which allows it to use a KMS host key to activate itself on a KMS host and to establish a local activation service in your environment. Pirates have created their own KMS servers which authenticate even rogue, duplicate or invalid product keys. Once you find a working server, it’s just a matter of setting it’s URL in Windows and forcing an activation (both of which can be done using the command line) – the rogue server will return the result saying your key was authenticated and Windows will switch to activated state.</p> <p>Some frequently asked questions about this method:</p> <p><strong>Are KMS host emulation hacks 100% working?</strong></p> <p>They do, albeit not 100%. For example, this type of activation may not pass Windows Genuine Advantage (WGA) validation. Except for that, it should work and bring your Windows to an activated state.</p> <p><strong>Can you provide a list of rogue KMS servers to activate against?</strong></p> <p>No. First, that may be illegal and second, these servers are very unstable. They go down frequently, old servers get taken down and new ones pop up all the time. You have to get the activation done during the small window of time they are up.</p> <p><strong>What are the command line instructions for activation using a custom KMS server?</strong> <br /><font size="1">[words in bold italic are variables that need to be replaced with your own values]</font></p> <ul> <li><em>slmgr /ipk <strong>productkey –</strong></em> Set a KMS host key to use during activation. This is essentially a Windows product key. </li> <li><em>slmgr -skms <strong>hostname.com:port</strong></em> – Set a custom KMS authentication server for Windows. </li> <li><em>slmgr /ato</em> – Perform activation </li> </ul> <p><strong>What happens if I don’t activate Windows?</strong></p> <p>You will not be able to install/download products that require WGA validation. And you will see a watermark on the bottom right of the screen which says “Activate Windows” – this watermark will appear on top of videos as well. Additionally, Windows needs to be in an activated state to change some personalization options and system settings.</p> <p><strong>How can I obtain a legit coy of Windows 8 for a reasonable price if I already have Windows 7?</strong></p> <p>If you are running a legit version of Windows 7, you can upgrade to Windows 8 for just $39.99 . If you bought a Windows 7 based PC between 1/1/2012 and 1/1/2013, the upgrade will only cost you $14.99 (check <a href="http://www.windowsupgradeoffer.com/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">this site</a>) . Note that once you upgrade, you will no longer be able to activate a Windows 7 installation using the same key. It will then only be usable on Windows 8 thereafter. This is something Microsoft doesn’t tell you very clearly.</p> </span> TEAM FILEnetworkshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18051427481018961189noreply@blogger.com61tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11317726.post-54658904998608790162012-11-11T23:08:00.001+05:302012-11-13T15:39:23.875+05:30Let’s Try This Again, Shall We?<p>Last time we attempted to boost the activity of this blog, it ended up being a "major" failure. Not only did we fail on our promises of daily updates, the blog stopped being updated for more than 10 months. This was the longest time the site ran without an update ever since its inception back in 2006. Anyway here we are again, attempting to wake FILEnetworks back from its slumber. </p><span class="fullpost"> <p>As our long time readers would know (if any of you are still here), FILEnetworks was primarily a blog revolved around BitTorrent news. However, things now are a lot different than they were a year ago. To tell the truth, the frequency of good, new, unique torrent trackers popping up has dropped. We always used to feature fresh new sites that were interesting to our readers and without good new sites we sort of ran out of content to write. This was one of the reasons why we lost interest in updating the site frequently. So does this mean the new FILEnetworks won’t be featuring BT trackers? Of course it will, but maybe not as frequently as we used to a year ago. </p><p>In this resurrection, we hope to return to our roots and cover not only BitTorrent but scene news, hacks, interesting tech news, PC Gaming and XBOX 360 articles, etc you won’t usually find on other sites. This time around we won’t promise to provide daily updates, but let us assure that the next update won’t be in 10 more months. So, let’s try this again, shall we?</p><p>To keep track of our updates, stay connected on:</p><p><strong>Twitter</strong>: <a title="http://twitter.com/filenetworks" href="http://twitter.com/filenetworks" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">http://twitter.com/filenetworks</a> <br />

Along with sign up links, we have provided up to date statistics on all featured trackers below.

Started in early 2011, 3DT appears to have built a decent membership and is not a ghost town as most of you would expect such a niche tracker to be. As for the content, 3D torrents indexes 3D videos including movies, sports and TV shows. Most of the torrents appear to be non scene releases, some unique to 3DT. Most are in HD while some non true HD videos encoded using XViD are also present. <br /><strong>Site Name</strong>: 3D Torrents (<a href="http://www.3dtorrents.org/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">http://www.3dtorrents.org</a>) <br /><strong>Signup URL</strong>: <a href="http://www.3dtorrents.org/index.php?page=signup" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">http://www.3dtorrents.org/index.php?page=signup</a> <br /><strong>Stats</strong>: 850+ torrents <br /><strong>Full Review</strong>: <a href="http://filenetworks.blogspot.com/2011/07/3d-torrents-private-tracker-for-3d.html" target="_blank">[Click Here]</a></p> <p><strong><font size="3">MP3Scene</font></strong><a href="http://lh4.ggpht.com/-etEOEoJd7WY/T0RaAU9KNeI/AAAAAAAAL5A/gl389PrqlXA/s1600-h/MP3Scene%25255B7%25255D.jpg"> <br /><img style="background-image: none; border-right-width: 0px; margin: 0px 0px 5px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; display: inline; border-top-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; padding-top: 0px" title="MP3Scene" border="0" alt="MP3Scene" src="http://lh6.ggpht.com/-nDaUyPA2-c8/T0RaBjMnPkI/AAAAAAAAL5I/vYhVkFzLhKo/MP3Scene_thumb%25255B5%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="464" height="98" /> <br /></a>MP3Scene is the newest MP3 music torrent tracker to be running on SoftMP3 source. As its name suggests, this is a music torrent tracker specializing in scene released MP3 music albums. Indexed music is organized into 40+ different genres including Rock, Pop, Indie, Punk, Jazz and more. In addition to MP3 files which form the majority of  torrent index, this site tracks some MDVDR and Lossless music files as well. Just like SoftMP3, MP3Scene uses multiple torrent index pages as opposed to a single main index found on most other torrent sites. There are separate browse pages each for new releases, archived releases, requests and lossless music. <br /><strong>Site Name</strong>: MP3Scene (<a href="http://mp3scene.org/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">http://mp3scene.org</a>) <br /><strong>Signup URL</strong>: <a title="http://mp3scene.org/opensignup.php" href="http://mp3scene.org/opensignup.php" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">http://mp3scene.org/opensignup.php</a> <br /><strong>Stats</strong>: 7800+ users and  12100+ torrents <br /><strong>Full Review</strong>: [Click Here]</p> <p><strong><font size="3">Lossless World <br /></font></strong><img style="background-image: none; border-right-width: 0px; margin: 0px 0px 5px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; border-top-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; padding-top: 0px" border="0" src="http://lh4.ggpht.com/_GEiY3s3yU4k/TQ5vwrdXiFI/AAAAAAAALH0/hpvBYCeLBTM/Lossless%20World_thumb%5B6%5D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="466" height="101" /> <br />There are quite a few lesser known specialized music trackers out there which index unique content and not just re-hashes of same old files found on every other music BitTorrent site. Lossless World is one such tracker which has it’s own rippers, uploaders and therefore a torrent index filled with exclusive releases.

The past couple of months hasn’t exactly been a joyride for private TV torrent trackers in general. TVTorrentz.com shut down, BitMeTV had extended <a href="http://filenetworks.blogspot.com/2012/01/update-on-downtime-of-hdbits-blackcats.html" target="_blank">downtimes</a> (now back online) and we didn’t see any notable new TV trackers pop up lately as well (in fact, no notable/stable new TV trackers since the birth of BTN). Either way, here’s some good news if you are a fan of US/UK TV shows. Freshon.TV (formerly known as Tv.Torrents.Ro) is currently open for signup and is accepting new registrations. This is a veteran TV tracker based in the torrent friendly country of Romania and has been in operation for years.</p> <span class="fullpost"> <p><a href="http://lh6.ggpht.com/-c1sJROZ_R7k/T0KQb46saKI/AAAAAAAAL4M/Lm5sQeiBiZM/s1600-h/Tv.Torrents.Ro%25255B7%25255D.jpg"><img style="background-image: none; border-right-width: 0px; margin: 0px 0px 5px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; display: inline; border-top-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; padding-top: 0px" title="Tv.Torrents.Ro" border="0" alt="Tv.Torrents.Ro" src="http://lh6.ggpht.com/-U5bAQDtucxM/T0KQdLKHxsI/AAAAAAAAL4U/fw5Rw1MY1aI/Tv.Torrents.Ro_thumb%25255B5%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="457" height="104" /></a></p> <p>As we have highlighted many times in the past, Tv.Torrents.Ro (aka Freshon.TV) is without a doubt one of the top 4 specialized TV trackers that are online (other sites being TvTorrents.Com, BitMeTV and BTN). TvT.Ro is a true veteran in the BitTorrent scene and has been online for nearly 6 years. It has made significant improvements over time and now sports one of the cleanest interfaces found on a TV torrent tracker. This was implemented back in 2010, in a massive overhaul during which mostly every aspect of TVT.Ro was re-coded resulting in optimized navigation, a more accessible user interface, faster loading times and a whole lot of other features that improved the site’s usability. A decent TV tracker overall and make sure to make the most of this rare open signup which we are sure will not last for much longer.</p> <p><strong>Site Name</strong>: Tv.Torrents.Ro (<a href="http://freshon.tv/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">http://freshon.tv</a>) <br /><strong>Signup URL</strong>: <a href="http://freshon.tv/signup.php" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">http://freshon.tv/signup.php</a> <br /><strong>Stats</strong>: 12000+ torrents (both SD and HD content), ~20000 users</p> </span> TEAM FILEnetworkshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18051427481018961189noreply@blogger.com185tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11317726.post-61273191101811220592012-02-06T20:38:00.001+05:302012-02-06T20:38:25.761+05:30FraMeSToR-HD Is Now BeyondHD – Ratio Free HD Torrent Tracker<p>About a year back, we posted <a href="http://filenetworks.blogspot.com/2011/02/framestor-hd-tracker-launches-for-bd25.html" target="_blank">an article</a> on FILEnetworks Blog about a specialized HD private torrent tracker by the name FraMeSToR-HD. It was a project started by the veteran P2P movie encoder group FraMeSToR. Today, a year later, FHD is undergoing some massive changes. First and foremost, the site is now called BeyondHD – they have moved to a new domain, a new visual theme and is pretty much a different site in terms of looks. More importantly, it is now essentially a ratioless tracker powered by the newly implemented “Download Credits” (DC) system. Despite these changes, BHD remains to be a specialized tracker for high definition content including 3DBD, BD25, Remux & other Blu Ray encodes, 720p,1080p/1080i movie and TV shows and even lossless FLAC music. If you are interested in joining, signups are now open for a limited time.</p> <span class="fullpost"> <p><a href="http://lh5.ggpht.com/-t7j3z31iQvY/Ty_szZVEP1I/AAAAAAAAL3U/TJvb2P7jBgk/s1600-h/BeyondHD%252520Logo%25255B9%25255D.jpg"><img style="background-image: none; border-right-width: 0px; margin: 0px 0px 5px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; display: inline; border-top-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; padding-top: 0px" title="BeyondHD Logo" border="0" alt="BeyondHD Logo" src="http://lh4.ggpht.com/-htUTOI5M9LU/Ty_s1PZICAI/AAAAAAAAL3c/r8gnpvF9fls/BeyondHD%252520Logo_thumb%25255B7%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="469" height="120" /></a></p> <p>The switch from Framestor-HD to BeyondHD seems to have gone smoothly. All existing user accounts and torrents have successfully been migrated over to the new site. As of 6/2/2012, BHD now tracks ~3000 active torrents and has a registered users base of 6700+ members. Quoted below is what BHD site admins told FILEnetworks Blog about the new changes:</p> <blockquote> <p>Well what's changed, we're running our puppy on a heavy modified xbtitFM you can safely say we're the first ratioless HD Tracker*. Instead of a ratio system our coder implemented a Download Credit (DC) system. New members get a 50000 DC bonus to start Users can donate and get VIP time ( FL ) or can buy DC points. For example when you download a torrent, you will first see the download check system come up with stats similar to below:</p> <ul> <li>Your torrent file is ready for download </li> <li>Your Download Credits:   128,025    </li> <li>Download Credits after download:   117,025   </li> </ul> <p>HD VIPS will NOT be charged , this is already calculated in de numbers you see. If the file is 100% / 75% or 50% free leech , it will cost you 100% / 75% or 50% less Download Credits.</p> <p>Just like before we still don't allow Scene x264 HD releases and we're going to keep it that way. Don't get me wrong we got nothing against the scene we love those guys let's say we got <br />different opinions when it comes to encoding.. ;)</p> </blockquote> <p><font size="1"><font size="3">*</font>There was previously a ratio free private HD tracker by the name </font><a href="http://filenetworks.blogspot.com/2009/09/scenex-now-ratio-free-hd-torrent.html" target="_blank"><font size="1">SceneX</font></a><font size="1">. However this site is now defunct, making BeyondHD the only functioning ratio free HD tracker currently in existence.</font></p> <p>One of the mains reasons behind the change over from FHD to BeyonHD seems to invite more internal encoders other than Framestor in to the tracker and beef up the number of available releases:</p> <blockquote> <p>Our idea is to bring you a huge number of quality content, not only by us, but also by other quality groups or sole encoders who share our vision. That's why we are going to change our site name from framestor-hd.org to beyondhd.org. We believe that this will open up the gates to welcome more new encoding talent and we could have a lot more available content. </p> </blockquote> <p>That being said, there are quite a few internal encoder groups already affiliated with BeyonHD:</p> <ul> <li>FraMeSToR - 1080p encodes, REMUX and BD25 </li> <li>ALeSiO – REMUX </li> <li>FASM - 720p / 1080p MP4 h264 and 1080p PS3 encodes </li> <li>NiBuRu - 1080p encodes </li> <li>LoNeWolf - 1080p encodes </li> </ul> <p>Some of the releases available on BHD can be seen in the screenshot below:</p> <p><a href="http://lh6.ggpht.com/-mGMvq8--5NE/Ty_s3ZD5UTI/AAAAAAAAL3k/UPWM4MSSxYg/s1600-h/BeyondHD%252520Index%25255B7%25255D.jpg"><img style="background-image: none; border-right-width: 0px; margin: 0px 0px 5px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; display: inline; border-top-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; padding-top: 0px" title="BeyondHD Index" border="0" alt="BeyondHD Index" src="http://lh5.ggpht.com/-HUa4d6rdjRQ/Ty_s54cyHCI/AAAAAAAAL3s/xF52jkxhC7Q/BeyondHD%252520Index_thumb%25255B5%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="407" height="453" /></a></p> <p>If you are a fan of HD content, you will naturally want to join this tracker. Thankfully, BeyondHD administrators are starting up by re-opening signups which have been closed for the most part of last year.

The site that we are featuring today is pretty secretive in their ways. Elk (short for Electrobits) is a small private music torrent tracker that is almost always closed for signup. However, new users can now get invited in through the invite application form that is currently online. The site, although relatively new, seems to be looking to become a small but active community of music sharers; there seems to be no place for tracker collectors here as site staff is targeting to recruit only 1000 members in the initial phase. Although only about a month old, it already indexes more than 5000 torrents including lots of FLAC music under multiple genres.</p> <span class="fullpost"> <p><a href="http://lh5.ggpht.com/-TgT3AtKOsls/Ty3IU0MIUhI/AAAAAAAAL2w/7h5nuUE87Gs/s1600-h/Electrobits%252520Logo%25255B11%25255D.png"><img style="background-image: none; border-right-width: 0px; margin: 0px 0px 5px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; display: inline; border-top-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; padding-top: 0px" title="Electrobits Logo" border="0" alt="Electrobits Logo" src="http://lh6.ggpht.com/-AWt3TAm5rh0/Ty3IWRs_l8I/AAAAAAAAL24/5lxbILLHFUA/Electrobits%252520Logo_thumb%25255B9%25255D.png?imgmax=800" width="468" height="104" /></a></p> <p>According to official statistics, Elk launched back in January 2012 and already indexes 5700+ active torrents. The site has been closed for signups since day one and currently only has a small user base of around 150 members. A brief description about the site sent to us by its admins pretty much sums it all up:</p> <blockquote> <p>We are a music tracker that is currently small in size and we are looking to grow. We currently have a user base of 150 and around 5700 torrents. With the addition of our auto-upload bot, uploading has never been more active. <br />We are focused on quality over quantity. As with most trackers we also offer a request section and we will do what we can to ensure that the requests that are made are fulfilled. <br />We are not a ratio free site, however due to the bonus system this is one of the easiest sites out there to maintain a good ratio on.</p> </blockquote> <p>A screenshot of some of the music categories available on Electrobits can be seen below:</p> <p><a href="http://lh6.ggpht.com/-qtFNCgp6jy0/Ty3IXsdea8I/AAAAAAAAL3A/QbHh3bpjQik/s1600-h/VVA95%25255B7%25255D.png"><img style="background-image: none; border-right-width: 0px; margin: 0px 0px 5px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; display: inline; border-top-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; padding-top: 0px" title="VVA95" border="0" alt="VVA95" src="http://lh5.ggpht.com/-546mYJ1cIvU/Ty3IaEcjGII/AAAAAAAAL3I/YUedNuzzP5s/VVA95_thumb%25255B5%25255D.png?imgmax=800" width="341" height="324" /></a></p> <p>As mentioned earlier, the only way into Elk is via an invite. You can get invited in by tracker staff themselves if you successfully fill out the online invite applications form. The form itself is pretty simple and has only 5 questions. You do however have to post three links to profiles of private trackers you are already a member of.</p> <p><strong>Site Name</strong>: Electrobits (<a href="http://elektrobits.org" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">http://elektrobits.org</a>)</p> <p><strong>Invite Applications URL</strong>: <a href="http://elektrobits.org/secret.php" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">http://elektrobits.org/secret.php</a></p> <p>Special thanks to Elk admins for the heads up.</p> </span> TEAM FILEnetworkshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18051427481018961189noreply@blogger.com68tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11317726.post-29917828322764967612012-01-26T00:19:00.001+05:302012-01-26T00:19:31.824+05:30PirateBees – Upcoming One Click Hosting Service “Made By Pirates, For Pirates”<p>With the recent shut down of MegaUpload, the cyberlocker and one click hosting services space was shaken violently. In the aftermath, several leading file hosters including FileSonic, FileServe, FilePost & x7.t<strong>o</strong> either suspended their operations or reduced functionality that made sharing of large files possible. In dark times like this, you’d think that no one would think of launching a new cyberlocker service, right? Wrong. As it is always the case with file sharing sites, when one goes down, several others pop in to take its place. PirateBees is one such new service that claims to offer free, one click online storage. This yet to be launched service carries an interesting tagline “Made by Pirates, For Pirates”. Not much is known about PirateBees yet, apart from the fact that crew behind veteran DDL forum <a href="http://filenetworks.blogspot.com/2009/12/x264-bb-download-m-hd-microhd-720p-and.html" target="_blank">x264-bb</a> are behind the project.</p> <span class="fullpost"> <p><a href="http://lh4.ggpht.com/-uj2mybPfR8k/TyBOtR1qPZI/AAAAAAAAL2c/uLgSTpmfH6A/s1600-h/PirateBees%25255B7%25255D.jpg"><img style="background-image: none; border-right-width: 0px; margin: 0px 0px 5px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; display: inline; border-top-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; padding-top: 0px" title="PirateBees" border="0" alt="PirateBees" src="http://lh6.ggpht.com/-_JYYCirTFj8/TyBOuV04F2I/AAAAAAAAL2k/kxmgOGK1dho/PirateBees_thumb%25255B5%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="470" height="102" /></a></p> <p>The initial pre-launch publicity about the new site was given through a mass PM sent to existing x264-BB members:</p> <blockquote> <p>This is going to be the next big thing. <br />PirateBees.com :: Made by Pirates for Pirates :: <br />Website: http://www.piratebees.com/soon/ <br />Share this link on your Facebook & Twitter if you can! <br />Get notified and receive news/updates by entering your email address. <br />Please make sure it is working email and add support[at]piratebees.[dot]com to your contact list to avoid being missed out!</p> </blockquote> <p>Official word is that the service will launch on 1st of April, 2012. And according to a comment on their FaceBook page, the servers are likely to be based in Latvia, where pressure from US laws would be minimal. x264-bb did suffer a lot with deleted links with recent shut downs of FileServe, MU and the likes. They may have finally decided to launch a file host of their own. Whether the final service will be free for all, invite only or exclusive to x264-bb members is currently not known. It’s all speculation right now - you can enter your E-mail address on the site to receive any official announcements made in future. Additionally, you can get some updates on their Facebook fan page as well.</p> <p><a href="http://piratebees.com/soon/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">[Click Here]</a> to visit PirateBees homepage</p> <p><a href="http://www.facebook.com/PirateBees" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">[Click Here]</a> to visit PirateBees Facebook page</p> <p><a href="https://www.facebook.com/x264.BB" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">[Click Here]</a> to visit x264-BB Facebook page</p> <p><strong>Related Articles</strong></p> <ul> <li><a href="http://filenetworks.blogspot.com/2009/12/x264-bb-download-m-hd-microhd-720p-and.html" target="_blank">x264-BB : Download m-HD (MicroHD), 720p and 1080p Movies, TV Shows & More</a> </li> <li><a href="http://filenetworks.blogspot.com/2010/07/x264bb-ddl-forum-says-goodbye-to.html" target="_blank">x264–BB DDL Forum Says Goodbye To RapidShare, Embraces Hotfile</a> </li> </ul> </span> TEAM FILEnetworkshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18051427481018961189noreply@blogger.com98tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11317726.post-25502077620194018452012-01-22T20:39:00.001+05:302012-01-22T20:39:20.202+05:30How To Get A Free TorrentLeech Invite – Updated For 2012<p>By now, each and every regular reader of this blog are likely to be a proud member of TorrentLeech (TL) tracker. But for those who don’t know what it is, TorrentLeech is the de facto king of private BitTorrent trackers. This 7+ year old file sharing community boasts a nearly 50000 strong torrent index, excellent download speeds and a very active user base comprised of hard core BitTorrent users. Now, TL is a private community with registrations usually closed to new members. However, getting invited in is actually pretty easy. Did you know that TL now has in place a fully automated IRC invite bot that serves free invites instantly? All you have to do is to log into their public invites IRC channel and type in your E-mail address. If you are too lazy to set up IRC connectivity, TL now allows you to connect to the chatroom through the browser itself.</p> <span class="fullpost"> <p><a href="http://lh5.ggpht.com/-uZS4mwM7x6E/TxwmmRGPniI/AAAAAAAAL2I/s6LBx363sNA/s1600-h/TorrentLeech%25255B1%25255D.jpg"><img style="background-image: none; border-right-width: 0px; margin: 0px 0px 5px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; display: inline; border-top-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; padding-top: 0px" title="TorrentLeech" border="0" alt="TorrentLeech" src="http://lh3.ggpht.com/-W18KYksaowk/TxwmnlT0sCI/AAAAAAAAL2Q/w1YGPedTXaE/TorrentLeech_thumb.jpg?imgmax=800" width="462" height="107" /></a></p> <p>Although it is now easy for even a beginner to get into TL, keeping the account without getting banned is a different story. You have to adhere to ratio rules if you are to survive there. It is strongly recommended that you read TL rules and FAQ before going on a downloading spree. The TorrentLeech Wiki has all the info and guides you’ll ever need. You can access it from here - <a href="http://wiki.torrentleech.org/doku.php" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">http://wiki.torrentleech.org/doku.php</a>. More information about the TL tracker including screenshots can be <a href="http://filenetworks.blogspot.com/2010/11/torrentleech-v3-new-look-new-features.html" target="_blank">found here</a>. </p> <p><strong><font size="3">How To Get A Free TorrentLeech Invite</font></strong></p> <ol> <li>Visit <a href="http://torrentleech.org/user/chat/guest" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">http://torrentleech.org/user/chat/guest</a>.  </li> <li>Enter a user name – This is just to join the chat room. This will not be your TL account user name. Click the ‘chat’ button once you are done. </li> <li>If you are using Google Chrome and get a ‘out of date plugin’ warning, try clicking on the ‘Run this time’ button below the address bar. In most cases this should work. If it does not, you’ll have to download and install the Java plugin <a href="http://www.java.com/en/download/index.jsp" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">from here</a>. </li> <li>You will get a Java security warning. Press ‘Run’ to load the java based chat window within the browser. </li> <li>You will automatically connect to TLs’ public invite request channel. Do not spam this channel. Do not say “hi”, “hello”, “can I haz invite plz” or anything else. Just type a valid E-mail address of yours and hit enter. You will immediately be disconnected from the channel. A TL invite will be sent to the E-mail address you just entered (the invite usually arrives from mailer[at]torrentleech[dot]org). Follow the instructions on the invite E-mail to complete the signup process. </li> </ol> <p>Regular readers of the blog might find the content of this article a bit redundant. That’s because we have already in the past posted numerous articles on how to get into TL. However, if you have less BitTorrent savvy friends on Facebook, Twitter, etc, share this post with them so that they can be a part of this wonderful tracker as well. </p> <p>Note - If you are thinking of copy/pasting this article somewhere else (let it be on a external forum or a blog), please do us a favor and link to this original article instead of reposting the entire content elsewhere.

So our plans to update the blog at least once every two days went to hell :p. It’s almost been two months since we last posted an article here. That happens sometimes. But we’re still here. A lot of important shit went down in the last couple of weeks including the introduction and shelving of SOPA, the shutdown of Megaupload, the arrest and conviction of NinjaVideo admins, Grooveshark getting sued by top 4 music labels, etc etc. Despite the numerous barriers (legal challenges and otherwise) the community seems to come across, file sharing still continues to thrive. With so much action going on we felt it was time for us to update the blog again, After all, new sites that make file sharing possible still get launched almost on a daily basis & the ones that are existing occasionally still open registrations. And it’s our job to report on them. We’ll try our best to keep this blog updated as much as we can. Till the next articles here are some quick updates on the downtime of some of the popular private BitTorrent trackers.</p> <span class="fullpost"> <ul> <li><strong>HDBits.org</strong> – Site has been down for three days. Official word is they are under a DDOS attack. ETA unknown. </li> <li><strong>BitMeTV.org</strong> – The popular TV tracker is moving servers. Quoted from public IRC channel “Site is moving - new data centre location, server, DNS changes, rebuilding site then testing it - it all takes time - NO ETA | Back when it's back”. </li> <li><strong>BitMe.Org</strong> – BitMeTV’s sister site and they too are moving servers. From the IRC “Bitme.org will be down roughly a week while we move the server.There is no firm ETA. Thank you for your patience. It has nothing to do with SOPA.” </li> <li><strong>Blackcats-Games</strong> – Site is moving servers and has been down for more than a week. However, they are expected to be back up within a couple of days.

The article features SuperTorrents, a large General/0Day tracker, SceneFZ, another huge general tracker and Lossless-World, a niche torrent site catering to high quality FLAC music files. If you are looking for general content downloads, ST and SFZ are two excellent candidates for being your primary general tracker. Combined, these two sites track over 130000 torrents between them and usually have great download speeds too. Lossless World on the other hand is a smaller site (with a not so small torrent index of 11500+ torrents) catering to lossless music encodes. Its strength lies on unique and exclusive FLAC music uploads.</p> <span class="fullpost"> <p><strong><font size="3">SuperTorrents <br /></font></strong><strong><a href="http://lh6.ggpht.com/_GEiY3s3yU4k/TaapC5dEa9I/AAAAAAAALlA/ukvC3w3sr4U/s1600-h/SuperTorrents%5B6%5D.jpg"><img style="background-image: none; border-right-width: 0px; margin: 0px 0px 5px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; border-top-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; padding-top: 0px" title="SuperTorrents" border="0" alt="SuperTorrents" src="http://lh5.ggpht.com/_GEiY3s3yU4k/TaapDw_X11I/AAAAAAAALlE/ywYEY1lXMoc/SuperTorrents_thumb%5B4%5D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="260" height="100" /></a> <br /></strong><strong>Site Name</strong>: SuperTorrents  (<a href="http://www.supertorrents.org/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">www.supertorrents.org</a>) <br /><strong>Signup URL</strong>: <a href="http://supertorrents.org/signup.php" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">http://supertorrents.org/signup.php</a> <br /><strong>Stats</strong>: 15000+ users and 90000+ torrents <br /><strong>Description</strong>: ST tracks over 90000 torrents pointing to scene and non scene movies, games, TV shows, books, audiobooks and software.

After yesterday’s open registration at <a href="http://filenetworks.blogspot.com/2011/10/hdchina-signups-open-for-three-days.html" target="_blank">HDChina</a>, one could say these are good times for fans of HD content – but some of you might disagree, especially if you are one of the many who got disabled due to inactivity over at HDT. Couple of days ago, HD-Torrents admins launched a massive operation to to purge inactive accounts from the tracker. As a result over 7500 accounts were disabled due to inactivity – this was effectively one third of HDT’s users base. But that’s not all, signups at HDT have been opened once again to fill the vacated ranks with new blood. For those of you hearing about this tracker for the first time, HD-Torrents is a veteran specialized HD torrent site indexing high definition movies and TV shows including scene, non scene and internal releases. Open signups at HDT is quite a rare occurrence so get in while you can.</p> <span class="fullpost"> <p><a href="http://lh4.ggpht.com/-MsL5G0C1KVo/TooI-2Ye1MI/AAAAAAAALz0/alyLhcAEwVw/s1600-h/HD%252520Torrents%252520Index%25255B7%25255D.jpg"><img style="background-image: none; border-right-width: 0px; margin: 0px 0px 5px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; display: inline; border-top-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; padding-top: 0px" title="HD Torrents Index" border="0" alt="HD Torrents Index" src="http://lh6.ggpht.com/-hID4Im4CgEk/TooI_lvZvjI/AAAAAAAALz4/3Tp4J1JPI2I/HD%252520Torrents%252520Index_thumb%25255B5%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="466" height="96" /></a></p> <p>At the end of last month, there were around 22000 registered members on HD-Torrents. Fast forward three days into October this number has fallen towards 14000. Over 7700 accounts were disabled for inactivity – this is one tracker where just logging in once a month to keep the account active is not going to work. To quote the official rules:</p> <ul> <li>If you have a combined download total in excess of 25 GB and your ratio is below 0.70 you will receive two consecutive warnings. Failure to act upon the warnings and increase your ratio above 0.70 will get your account disabled. </li> <li>You are <strong>required to download at least 15 GB each quarter</strong> (90 days). Each quarter starts respectively on 1st day of January, April, July and October and ends on the last day of March, June, September and December. If on the 26 day of the last month of each quarter you are bellow the 15 GB minimum, you will receive a reminder. If on the last day of the quarter you still do not meet the requirement, your account will be disabled </li> </ul> <p>It’s highly likely that it was the minimum quarterly download requirement of 15gb that doomed many of the disabled members. If you are thinking of creating an account here, do not forget about the two rules quoted above.</p> <p>Coming back to the content indexed on HDT, it is in fact a pretty good HD tracker. With over 13500 torrents and an active seeder/leecher community (most popular torrent on this tracker has over 500 seeds), HD-Torrents is a good place to be if you love high definition content. It tracks lots of 720p and 1080p releases (in x264 container), untouched Blu –Ray, Blu-Ray Remux, etc ranging from movies, TV shows, documentaries, anime to even some high quality lossless music. There are a lot of p2p releases indexed (in addition to scene releases) including some uploads by internal encoder groups which include HiDt (which includes EuReKa who <a href="http://filenetworks.blogspot.com/2010/01/eureka-joins-hd-torrents-signups-open.html" target="_blank">formerly</a> released on Awesome-HD), ViSTA™, DNL, HDMaNiAcS & KRaLiMaRKo.</p> <p><a href="http://lh3.ggpht.com/-_Yt0eyNmFXM/TooJA5Ap2YI/AAAAAAAALz8/ZTOIqg7hiLY/s1600-h/HD%252520Torrents%252520Index%252520Torrents%25255B8%25255D.jpg"><img style="background-image: none; border-right-width: 0px; margin: 0px 0px 5px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; display: inline; border-top-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; padding-top: 0px" title="HD Torrents Index Torrents" border="0" alt="HD Torrents Index Torrents" src="http://lh3.ggpht.com/-RTt6joQGIOg/TooJCINglmI/AAAAAAAAL0A/7PROVhtg6BQ/HD%252520Torrents%252520Index%252520Torrents_thumb%25255B6%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="430" height="409" /></a></p> <p>As said in the title of this post, signups for HD-Torrents are currently open.

The site will open at 16:00 GMT on 03.10.11</p> </blockquote> <p>It is not clear if the site would stay open until the user limit of 38000 is reached (that leaves around 24000 free spots up for the taking).

First things first – as the name suggest, HDChina is a private tracker that has Chinese origins. But that doesn’t mean it would be useless for those who seek to download English content. HDC in fact tracks a lot of English releases (including scene, non scene and tracker exclusive uploads by affiliated groups) in addition to local content. It is a massive HD tracker that every serious fan of HD content should definitely be a part of. Last time this tracker opened signups was back in February 2010 – which is more than a year ago. This time around they have a limited open signup to celebrate National Day in China.</p> <span class="fullpost"> <p><a href="http://lh3.ggpht.com/-4zOz6LYD9sc/Tof206agBBI/AAAAAAAALzg/S0H9RFx37TM/s1600-h/HDChina%25255B9%25255D.jpg"><img style="background-image: none; border-right-width: 0px; margin: 0px 0px 5px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; display: inline; border-top-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; padding-top: 0px" title="HDChina" border="0" alt="HDChina" src="http://lh4.ggpht.com/-eV4mSMH9ieM/Tof21-VxaNI/AAAAAAAALzk/n1QSSI6l2ew/HDChina_thumb%25255B7%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="472" height="85" /></a></p> <p>Although not very popular in the western world, HDChina is a huge private tracker and is one of the largest HD trackers ever. At the time this post was being written there were over 46500 registered members on HDC and it also had a mammoth sized torrent index with over 33000 HD torrents. The reason for it’s relative lack of popularity in English speaking countries might be the whole ‘Chinese connection’. After having a glance at the signup page filled with Chinese characters, many people seem to turn away, assuming this to be a BitTorrent tracker with releases local to China. This however is far from the truth. Majority of the content indexed on HDC are in English language including international releases such as Hollywood blockbusters and HDTV shows aired in the US and UK. Even the site interface can easily be switched to English if required - Once logged in, just click on the English flag icon on the top left corner of the page to change the language. Also note that this site labels almost all torrents including English only releases using both Chinese and English wording. So just know that a torrent having a Chinese label doesn’t mean it’s a Chinese release.</p> <p>As far as the content goes, HDC is movie/TV tracker. A list of categories and video formats found on this tracker are summarized below:</p> <ul> <li>Movie: Blu-ray, 1080i, 1080p, 720p </li> <li>TV Episode: TV EP (CN/HK/TW), TV EP (JP/KR), TV EP (US/UK) </li> <li>TV PACK: TV Pack China (HK/TW), TV Pack JP/KR, TV Pack US/UK </li> <li>Others: Sports, Animation, Documentary, Music Video </li> <li>Audio: Lossless, Audio Track </li> </ul> <p>Individual releases (which include 0day uploads) are accompanied by large torrent packs. These are pretty huge, with some packs exceeding 400GB in file size. Additionally, this tracker has no shortage of exclusive uploads thanks to the shitload of affiliated P2P groups that release on it such as HDChina, HDCTV, LU9998, iHD, CtrlHD, beAst & HDS, KiSHD and Pa@Ph. A screenshot capturing part of the torrent index may be found below:</p> <p><a href="http://lh6.ggpht.com/-hR_toXLrcPU/Tof24C8CK8I/AAAAAAAALzo/rdZ6bikM20M/s1600-h/HDChina%252520Index%25255B8%25255D.jpg"><img style="background-image: none; border-right-width: 0px; margin: 0px 0px 5px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; display: inline; border-top-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; padding-top: 0px" title="HDChina Index" border="0" alt="HDChina Index" src="http://lh4.ggpht.com/-oIUh_uwr6WE/Tof26Jp8fZI/AAAAAAAALzs/RyHOaJt1LY4/HDChina%252520Index_thumb%25255B6%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="455" height="439" /></a></p> <p>While creating an account on HDC will be easy thanks to the open signups, keeping it from getting disabled would be a harder task. HDC is serious about user activity and all new users are automatically checked by the system after a specific period of time and immediately disabled if minimum upload/download and bonus points requirements are not met.

Did they ever have open signups? Well it doesn’t matter, the good news is they have now – doors are now open to movie fanatics around the world. TehConnection (TC) is a specialized movie torrent tracker based on Gazelle codebase. It created a lot of buzz even during its early days since the project was backed by several staff of then legendary SceneTorrents (ScT) tracker. TC has really come a long way since then – today it has established itself as one of the best private movie torrent trackers around. If you are a fan of English (and some foreign) movies, it’s time to create an account – and do hurry since there is no notice about open signups on site which means they could close any time.</p> <span class="fullpost"> <p><a href="http://lh6.ggpht.com/-Rkg6OfoE1E4/ToIHqMPPVaI/AAAAAAAALzM/y_C0H-Iwkwo/s1600-h/Tehconnection%252520Logo%25255B9%25255D.jpg"><img style="background-image: none; border-right-width: 0px; margin: 0px 0px 5px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; display: inline; border-top-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; padding-top: 0px" title="Tehconnection Logo" border="0" alt="Tehconnection Logo" src="http://lh6.ggpht.com/-EbhHdJD3AjA/ToIHq2bUXZI/AAAAAAAALzQ/mjufI_enlRQ/Tehconnection%252520Logo_thumb%25255B7%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="460" height="101" /></a></p> <p>With over 20000 movie torrents and 10000+ registered members, TehConnection is one of the largest private movie torrent communities currently online. The site has almost always been invite only but invitations were obtainable through <a href="http://filenetworks.blogspot.com/2010/07/btn-and-tehconnection-announce.html" target="_blank">partnerships with other sites</a>, power user forums and <a href="http://filenetworks.blogspot.com/2010/06/25-private-trackers-with-irc.html" target="_blank">IRC invite channels</a>. As said earlier this is the first open signup to come in several years time. Open registrations coincide with several new features being added to TC, including search by IMDB number, Montages (in list view), a new upload screen and the ability for for users with producer rank to gift upload credit.</p> <p>As most of you already know, TehConnection is a movie torrent tracker. The site indexes a massive library of over 13000 movies (20000+ torrents) which involves the work of 264,871 actors, 9385 directors and 18277 writers. TC tracks both SD and HD video content and Gazelle does a fine job of bundling these torrents together, making browsing and search less time consuming.</p> <p><a href="http://lh3.ggpht.com/-KOx2Pb8O7eg/ToIHsmj2rAI/AAAAAAAALzU/eoZ0B-9X1u4/s1600-h/TehConnection%252520Index%25255B8%25255D.jpg"><img style="background-image: none; border-right-width: 0px; margin: 0px 0px 5px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; display: inline; border-top-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; padding-top: 0px" title="TehConnection Index" border="0" alt="TehConnection Index" src="http://lh4.ggpht.com/-axkmdcYgvQA/ToIHt3qqM4I/AAAAAAAALzY/KbPl7HlqLGI/TehConnection%252520Index_thumb%25255B6%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="447" height="512" /></a></p> <p>Registrations for TehConnection are currently open. However, there is no official word on it from the administration (either on site homepage or on the forums) which means signups could close anytime. If you are a movie fan, this is a tracker you should not miss – go ahead and create an account before the doors close. <strong>EDIT</strong>: This news was <a href="http://www.reddit.com/r/trackers/comments/kt1sn/tehconnection_open_registration/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">posted on Reddit</a> by GLaDOSDan who is a coder at TC so yeah open signups are official.</p> <p><strong>Site Name</strong>: TehConnection (<a href="http://tehconnection.eu" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">http://tehconnection.eu</a>)</p> <p><strong>Signup URL</strong>: <a href="http://tehconnection.eu/register.php" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">http://tehconnection.eu/register.php</a></p> </span> TEAM FILEnetworkshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18051427481018961189noreply@blogger.com25tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11317726.post-70576491701499741182011-09-22T08:15:00.001+05:302011-09-22T08:15:53.680+05:30MusicEye.TV – Music Video Torrent Tracker (No Ratio)<p>Specialized music video torrent trackers – we’ve seen quite a few of these launch over the years but very few succeeding in becoming well established BitTorrent sites. MusicEye is the latest tracker to cater to this niche and from what we’ve seen so far, it has the potential of becoming one of the rare successes in this category. ME is powered by Gazelle codebase and is the first ever music video tracker to launch without mandatory ratio requirements (in other words, ratio free). As you may have already guessed, the site tracks music videos, live performances, full concerts and related documentaries (both in standard and high definition). Registrations are currently open if you are planning to create an account – from what we hear from the admins open signups will only last till this Saturday (22nd).</p> <span class="fullpost"> <p><a href="http://lh3.ggpht.com/-HRQHT2uU_CQ/TnqhU5aF5kI/AAAAAAAALy4/kBlQIG1XGk4/s1600-h/MusicEye.tv%25255B7%25255D.jpg"><img style="background-image: none; border-right-width: 0px; margin: 0px 0px 5px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; display: inline; border-top-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; padding-top: 0px" title="MusicEye.tv" border="0" alt="MusicEye.tv" src="http://lh6.ggpht.com/-lTH_v7s8QHY/TnqhV4VQt8I/AAAAAAAALy8/oKa4e90var4/MusicEye.tv_thumb%25255B5%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="471" height="114" /></a></p> <p>Been in beta for over a month, MusicEye opened to the public just 5 days ago. Response it has received from the BitTorrent community so far has been great – there are already over 1400 members registered on site and this number is likely to increase since registrations are still open. MusicEyes uploaders too have done an excellent job in ramping up the sites content offering – it already indexes over 1100 active music video torrents.</p> <p>Speaking of the torrent index, the site features music videos, live performances, full converts and music documentaries in HD and standard video formats. These are all well organized in the main index and search thanks to Gazelle. Notable features include Artist pages (somewhat similar to Series pages on BTN), collections, subscriptions, etc. A screenshot showing part of the main torrent index can be seen below:</p> <p><a href="http://lh6.ggpht.com/-YsLFq5p5vyg/TnqhXD2DoCI/AAAAAAAALzA/uM4RU_g4Da8/s1600-h/MusicEye%252520Index%25255B9%25255D.jpg"><img style="background-image: none; border-right-width: 0px; margin: 0px 0px 5px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; display: inline; border-top-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; padding-top: 0px" title="MusicEye Index" border="0" alt="MusicEye Index" src="http://lh6.ggpht.com/-p6R3_rgf3JQ/TnqhYAYLGTI/AAAAAAAALzE/1Q5b4mcRLJQ/MusicEye%252520Index_thumb%25255B7%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="388" height="461" /></a></p> <p>As we mentioned earlier, open registrations would continue until Saturday the 22nd. To quote the official post on homepage:</p> <blockquote> <p>Open registration will be closing Saturday. After we close registrations, invites will periodically be handed out at staff discretion, or through the points system.</p> </blockquote> <p>If you are looking for a fast growing tracker for your music video needs, MusicEye is definitely worth a shot.</p> <p><strong>Site Name</strong>: MusicEye (<a href="http://musiceye.tv" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">http://musiceye.tv</a>)</p> <p><strong>Signup URL</strong>: <a href="http://musiceye.tv/register.php" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">http://musiceye.tv/register.php</a></p> </span> TEAM FILEnetworkshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18051427481018961189noreply@blogger.com12tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11317726.post-15716015420532588072011-09-21T07:52:00.001+05:302011-09-21T07:52:44.004+05:30torrentsRmine – Niche TV Tracker For Talk Shows, Documentary, Reality TV & More<p>ong time readers of this blog should be no strangers to specialized TV torrent trackers such as BTN, BitmeTV, TVTorrents.Com and Tv.Torrents.Ro. But have you heard about torrentRmine (TRM)? While most TV trackers focus on popular drama, comedy, sitcoms, etc aired on US and Canadian television, TRM focuses more on specialized content such as TV talk shows, documentaries, reality TV and similar series. With their own ‘cappers’ who rip television shows from digital satellite TV (DSTV) and high definition TV (HDTV) broadcasts, TRM really has some unique content. Over the years, torrentsRmine has mostly been an invite only tracker – good news is that signups have been opened for a limited time and doors are now open to all.</p> <span class="fullpost"> <p><a href="http://lh5.ggpht.com/-NIujTOZPGF0/TnlKZzckHJI/AAAAAAAALyk/7U448JsqQA4/s1600-h/torrentsRmine%252520Logo%25255B7%25255D.jpg"><img style="background-image: none; border-right-width: 0px; margin: 0px 0px 5px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; display: inline; border-top-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; padding-top: 0px" title="torrentsRmine Logo" border="0" alt="torrentsRmine Logo" src="http://lh4.ggpht.com/-TVVVUBHi7CY/TnlKaogcCvI/AAAAAAAALyo/-WjI8WwVeYM/torrentsRmine%252520Logo_thumb%25255B5%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="468" height="97" /></a></p> <p>When compared to leading TV trackers, TRM is a small community. As of 21/9/2011, it had around 600 registered members and ~2250 active torrents. The low member count is probably due to TRM being an invite only community and the fact that it frequently disables inactive members. As for the torrents, this tracker indexes and tracks some of the rarest TV torrents around. How does TRM get hold of such content? They have their own ‘cappers’ – folks who capture television shows from sources HDTV, DSTV, etc. Additionally, TRM has an excellent requests section with a high request fulfillment ratio. Check out the screenshot below which displays part of this tracker’s torrent index:</p> <p><a href="http://lh3.ggpht.com/-ilU3Pp3-_tQ/TnlKbnhfNlI/AAAAAAAALys/5-cv6Hh9zZA/s1600-h/TRM%252520Index%25255B10%25255D.jpg"><img style="background-image: none; border-right-width: 0px; margin: 0px 0px 5px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; display: inline; border-top-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; padding-top: 0px" title="TRM Index" border="0" alt="TRM Index" src="http://lh4.ggpht.com/-ql5bQcPxUCY/TnlKcn5keGI/AAAAAAAALyw/3DVg83S6-UE/TRM%252520Index_thumb%25255B8%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="411" height="406" /></a></p> <p>As mentioned earlier signups for TRM are currently open. Note that new members do not have access to all content on the tracker immediately after signup. To download some exclusive releases and season packs you need to be Power User rank or higher (getting promoted shouldn’t be too hard – minimum upload is 10GB and you only need to be a member for 2 weeks). And it’s worth mentioning that this is not an easy tracker to seed – since TRM requires you to maintain a minimum ratio, be very careful about what you download, especially at first (there are freeleech torrents of course – check out the gold and silver torrents which have 100% and 50% free leech respectively).

Now here’s the good news for those of you who still have not had a chance to create a TorrentLeech account – the new invites IRC channel is now online and is functional. The system is fully automated and there is no need to wait for or talk to a TL staffer at all – you just have to log into the channel, reply with a valid E-mail when the bot prompts you and that’s about it. There are no interviews, no ratio proof or anything of that sort required either – it’s more like an IRC based open signup.</p> <span class="fullpost"> <p><a href="http://lh5.ggpht.com/-Ac6xEAxAlo4/TnX-mCob-kI/AAAAAAAALyY/l05-Abhv9bw/s1600-h/TorrentLeech%252520Logo%25255B7%25255D.jpg"><img style="background-image: none; border-right-width: 0px; margin: 0px 0px 5px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; display: inline; border-top-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; padding-top: 0px" title="TorrentLeech Logo" border="0" alt="TorrentLeech Logo" src="http://lh3.ggpht.com/-zYzks9peQeM/TnX-ncQkc4I/AAAAAAAALyc/Umuyqpi3fo0/TorrentLeech%252520Logo_thumb%25255B5%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="464" height="96" /></a></p> <p>If you have read up to this point, you obviously know what TL is – a General/0Day private torrent tracker that has a massive torrent index with over 45000 active torrents and a huge user base of 200000+ registered members. If you seek more information on TL including screenshots and a detailed overview of TL v3 features, we highly recommend you read our recent review <a href="http://filenetworks.blogspot.com/2010/11/torrentleech-v3-new-look-new-features.html" target="_blank">located here</a>.

BE WARNED! Any attempts for multiple accounts will result in ban.”.</em> Please reply to this message with a valid and functional E-mail address only <br />i.e. <em>youremail@mail.com</em>. </li> <li>You will get a prompt saying you were added to the invite queue and the estimated time for your invite to arrive will also be mentioned. You will be disconnected from the IRC channel. This is normal. Please check the E-mail you entered in step 3 after the specified time to see if you received the invite. Please make sure to check the SPAM/JUNK folders as well. </li> </ol> <p>We do not know for how long the invites IRC channel will remain open.

To prevent the site from cracking under heavy demand, there was a hourly registrations limit in place which limited new signups to a maximum of 800 per hour. However, TL still got hammered by people trying to get in (and refreshing the pages continuously even after the hourly limit exceeded) and soon the open signup had to be prematurely ended. If you are one of the unlucky souls to miss out on this TL open signup, there is some good news – TL will definitely have future open signups and giving out invitation codes will be handled by an automated IRC bot.</p> <span class="fullpost"> <p>Quoted below is part of an E-mail message sent to us by TL owner w00t:</p> <blockquote> <p>We are building a new irc bot who will handle those invites due to the huge amount of users tried to sign up, and took down the site :P The bot should be ready in couple of days, of you want please inform your users as well because they still try to sign up with the SUMMER2011 code ^__^ Every user will get a unique invite code from the bot, when it will be up ;)</p> </blockquote> <p>Just to make things clear, the SUMMER2011 invite code is now invalid and will not work – there is no point of trying to sign up using that code anymore. When the IRC invite bot is up and when TL starts issuing invites again, we will post the news on FILEnetworks Blog with detailed instructions on how to join the IRC channel and obtain a unique invite code.

This special open registration is done through a promotional invite code earlier made public via TLs’ Twitter account. Only restriction which currently applies to this open signup is the hourly account creation limit – to prevent the promotion from being abused, only a maximum of 800 new signups are allowed every hour (Maximum of 19200 per day).

It pretty much tracks everything a BitTorrent downloader would ever need, ranging from movies, music, TV shows, games to electronic books.

The site has a massive torrent index with over 45000 active torrents and a huge user base of 200000+ registered members.

TV AussieTT is a private tracker specializing in television content from New Zealand and Australia. We have previously talked about torrent sites with Aussie content such as Diwana.Org (open for <a href="http://filenetworks.blogspot.com/2010/05/diwana-australian-and-new-zealand-tv.html" target="_blank">signup</a>) and Across The Tasman (Open for <a href="http://filenetworks.blogspot.com/2010/06/acrossthetasman-rugby-cricket-afl-motor.html" target="_blank">signup</a>) and if there are any fans out there on the lookout for Autralian or New Zealand TV shows, here’s yet another option for you. TV AussieTT is not exactly a new site but they suffered from a database error back in February 2011 which resulted in the loss of all users and torrents. Thankfully, the administrators have just started rebuilding TATT (and two of its sister sites) from scratch and it seems to be making good progress.</p> <span class="fullpost"> <p><a href="http://lh3.ggpht.com/-h0g97R4fs3A/TlRqzLsC49I/AAAAAAAALx4/C_UzlPGuY9A/s1600-h/TV%252520AussieTT%25255B9%25255D.jpg"><img style="background-image: none; border-right-width: 0px; margin: 0px 0px 5px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; display: inline; border-top-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; padding-top: 0px" title="TV AussieTT" border="0" alt="TV AussieTT" src="http://lh4.ggpht.com/-CAcPKDp5b68/TlRqzxzwMDI/AAAAAAAALx8/4mZ7EPogZEg/TV%252520AussieTT_thumb%25255B7%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="462" height="110" /></a></p> <p>The rebooted version of TV AussieTT currently tracks around 90 torrents and has a registered users base in excess of 700 members. Before you complain about the low torrent count, note that all of the uploads were added during the past week or to be more precise within a 6 day time span. That’s actually pretty good for a niche torrent tracker and hopefully they will keep the momentum going in the weeks to come.</p> <p>Speaking of the content indexed on AussieTT, it mostly has Australian and New Zealand (mainly Aussie) TV shows aired on free to air and cable TV channels. Shows seem to be capped and uploaded within a very short time after original airing. Indexed content include Drama, Comedy, Documentaries, Game shows, News, Reality TV and more. The screenshot below shows some of the indexed content:</p> <p><a href="http://lh3.ggpht.com/-AJgajURwX_k/TlRq1kOQvCI/AAAAAAAALyA/izBgbLCyodA/s1600-h/TV%252520AussieTT%252520Index%25255B9%25255D.jpg"><img style="background-image: none; border-right-width: 0px; margin: 0px 0px 5px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; display: inline; border-top-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; padding-top: 0px" title="TV AussieTT Index" border="0" alt="TV AussieTT Index" src="http://lh3.ggpht.com/-WRrHnvi7w14/TlRq3qKQsyI/AAAAAAAALyE/Lh190CFt70c/TV%252520AussieTT%252520Index_thumb%25255B7%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="433" height="477" /></a></p> <p>IF you are interested in joining TATT, signups are currently open.

ComicBT, a leading private torrent tracker specializing in Comic book torrents, is now open for signup. CBT has been having some server issues in the recent past and a planned open signup due to be launched last weekend was postponed until these problems were fixed. Intermittent slowdowns and downtime issues apparently sparked a lot of rumors about the sites untimely death but you’d be glad to know these rumors are all false. A new announcement on CBT reads “The rumours of the sites death were greatly exaggerated. The server has been fixed up and we are now FULL POWER AHEAD!”. We did post about a ComicBT open signup last month but unfortunately, the site closed doors just a couple of hours after the post went live. If you missed out back then, here’s your chance to sign up to one of the best (and possibly the largest) dedicated comics trackers around.</p> <span class="fullpost"> <p><img style="background-image: none; border-right-width: 0px; margin: 0px 0px 5px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; border-top-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; padding-top: 0px" border="0" src="http://lh5.ggpht.com/--JMJpfs_SOs/TiR5HLA8UcI/AAAAAAAALw0/U03keHEkfOk/ComicBT%252520Logo_thumb%25255B5%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" /></p> <p>Its been just over a year since CBT started its operations and the site has improved at a great pace during the last couple of months. It’s torrent index has more than tripled since we last covered the site and now lists almost 10000 active torrents (9807 to be precise, as of 23/8/2011) up from 2500 back in October 2010. Registered users count has also increased to 2700, despite CBT being a closed community which is almost always invite only. Earlier, the plan was to open signups for a couple of days and increase the user count up to 5000 – even at it’s present state with 2.7k users, CBT has very good activity and there aren’t a lot of dead torrents on site. </p> <p>As for the type of content on CBT, it’s pretty much straightforward, as we highlighted in our <a href="http://filenetworks.blogspot.com/2011/07/comicbt-open-doors-for-limited-time.html" target="_blank">previous article</a>. You can find both new and old issues of almost all major comic book series on this tracker (this includes individual issues and complete series packs). These usually come in CBR, CBZ or PDF file formats - they are all viewable on the PC and probably even on portable devices such as iPad, provided that you have the required software (for a list of software you can use to view Comic Book Archive files on the PC, <a href="http://filenetworks.blogspot.com/2009/01/software-to-open-view-cbr-cbz-cb7-cbt.html" target="_blank">look here</a>). In addition to comic books, CBT indexes movies, animation, official soundtracks, audiobooks, e-books and TV series based on comic book characters as well. The screenshot below should give you a better understanding of the content available for download on CBT:</p> <p><a href="http://lh4.ggpht.com/--M6x8CuMeB0/TlMVc435M_I/AAAAAAAALxs/dqdTgEKlIPc/s1600-h/Comic%252520Book%252520Tracker%252520Index%25255B8%25255D.jpg"><img style="background-image: none; border-right-width: 0px; margin: 0px 0px 5px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; display: inline; border-top-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; padding-top: 0px" title="Comic Book Tracker Index" border="0" alt="Comic Book Tracker Index" src="http://lh3.ggpht.com/-k5NbV6vGVZ0/TlMVeOsn24I/AAAAAAAALxw/r2yHHZCM6XY/Comic%252520Book%252520Tracker%252520Index_thumb%25255B6%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="457" height="436" /></a></p> <p>To put it shortly, if you have any interest in comics, comic book characters, superheroes, etc then this is a must have tracker for you.

This wasn’t something we planned to happen but real life commitments always do come first no matter how passionate we are about writing a file sharing blog. Either way we are back and we plan to update the site more frequently just like in the good old days. Thanks everyone who sent E-mails, posted comments and contacted us on Twitter during the past month – your feedback is what keeps us going. And it was great to see folks still submitting news to our E-mail filenetworks[at]gmail[dot]com throughout this time – we apologize we could not reply to individual mails but know that your submissions are always read and added to our post queue.

Of course, there are plenty of dedicated movie trackers out there but as far as we know none of them focus solely on 3D content. Well, there was 3DBluRayISO, a hybrid DDL + Torrent forum specializing in 3D but that too is now <a href="http://filenetworks.blogspot.com/2010/12/download-full-blu-ray-movies-other-3d.html" target="_blank">defunct</a>. Good news for 3D lovers is that 3D Torrents is a relatively new tracker that focuses only on 3D only content (and by ‘content’ we mostly mean movies). Started in early 2011, 3DT appears to have built a decent membership and is not a ghost town as most of you would expect such a niche tracker to be. They are in the process of expanding user base and signups are currently open.</p> <span class="fullpost"> <p><a href="http://lh5.ggpht.com/-c5PNM24cC3A/Ti9-gx8WkjI/AAAAAAAALxY/bQTFVWccfaA/s1600-h/3D%252520Torrents%25255B9%25255D.jpg"><img style="background-image: none; border-right-width: 0px; margin: 0px 0px 5px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; display: inline; border-top-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; padding-top: 0px" title="3D Torrents" border="0" alt="3D Torrents" src="http://lh3.ggpht.com/-srBFZY_pT9I/Ti9-h1Nsg2I/AAAAAAAALxc/2sjaQae8KoE/3D%252520Torrents_thumb%25255B7%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="478" height="112" /></a></p> <p>To be honest, I was not aware of the existence of this tracker until I came across a Tweet by <a href="http://twitter.com/#!/tracker_nfo" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">@tracker_nfo</a> yesterday. So I quite don’t know the backstory of this one but it seems to be pretty popular destination amongst 3D fans judging by seeder numbers and completed downloads. Popular torrents on this tracker have over 100 seeds, which is quite good for a niche torrent site.</p> <p>As for the content, 3D torrents indexes 3D videos including movies, sports and TV shows. Most of the torrents appear to be non scene releases, some unique to 3DT. Most are in HD while some non true HD videos encoded using XViD are also present. The screenshot below should give you a better idea on what sort of content you can find on this tracker:</p> <p><a href="http://lh6.ggpht.com/-_GgNTFc7zBA/Ti9-is8wyYI/AAAAAAAALxg/AUYcgwDk25M/s1600-h/3D%252520Torrents%252520Index%25255B7%25255D.jpg"><img style="background-image: none; border-right-width: 0px; margin: 0px 0px 5px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; display: inline; border-top-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; padding-top: 0px" title="3D Torrents Index" border="0" alt="3D Torrents Index" src="http://lh3.ggpht.com/-kxd9mZbi3KI/Ti9-jmUdgYI/AAAAAAAALxk/I33c4ppENg8/3D%252520Torrents%252520Index_thumb%25255B5%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="400" height="289" /></a></p> <p>Most of you might have noticed that 3DT’s main toolbar has a big ‘How To’ button. It’s basically a tutorial which covers the basics of 3D technology, how to play back 3D movies, supported devices, etc. It’s strongly recommended that you read this section before downloading torrents. This section has all the information you’ll need when it comes to watching/playing back 3D movies and is a good read for both beginners and power users.</p> <p>Registrations for 3DT are currently open. If you are looking for a good source to download 3D content, check this tracker out.</p> <p><strong>Site Name</strong> : 3D Torrents (<a href="http://www.3dtorrents.org" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">http://www.3dtorrents.org</a>)</p> <p><strong>Signup URL</strong> : <a title="http://www.3dtorrents.org/index.php?page=signup" href="http://www.3dtorrents.org/index.php?page=signup" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">http://www.3dtorrents.org/index.php?page=signup</a></p> </span> TEAM FILEnetworkshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18051427481018961189noreply@blogger.com161
