7 General Private Trackers Open For Signup - February 2011

It was only a week ago we posted our monthly private tracker open signup update for February 2011. The previous articled covered 12 new torrent sites but as pointed out by some of our readers, we had missed out on several of the newer trackers. So, consider this post an extension to our previous open signup update – here we bring you summarized information about 8 more private BitTorrent communities that are currently open for signup. Unlike our last post which focused on niche, specialty trackers, this article mostly features General/0Day torrent sites that do not limit themselves to a specific category of torrents. These sites track anything and everything ranging from movies, music, TV shows, books, video games, etc. There is only one specialty tracker in this bunch which is CatTorrents, an E-book and Audiobook torrent site.

Note that if you are looking for niche torrent sites, you might want to read our previous update (in case you still haven’t). Most of the sites mentioned there are still open for signup.

TheCamorra

Site Name: TheCamorra (http://thecamorra.org)
Signup URL:  http://thecamorra.org/free-signup.php
Stats: 1900+ users and 690+ torrents (360 active)
Description: When it first appeared on the internet a couple of weeks ago, most people though TheCamorra to be a clone of the CN tracker. The timing of it’s launch (soon after the downtime of CN), the mafia themed style sheet and its entry into the BT scene as a specialized movie tracker just like CN fueled these suspicions. However, Camorra is changing gears – it will no longer be a movies only tracker but will become a General/0Day tracker with scene and non scene content.

ScanBits

Site Name: ScanBits (http://www.scanbits.org)
Signup URL:  http://www.scanbits.org/signup.php
Stats: 1200+ torrents
Description: ScanBits is a two week old general tracker of Scandinavian origins. The site tracks a mix of both English and Scandinavian content including scene, P2P and user uploads. Torrents are being added at a decent speed and the index has already shot past the 1000 torrents mark.

PolishSource

Site Name: PolishSource (http://polishsource.org)
Signup URL: http://polishsource.org/signup.php?lang=en

Description: Although this may look like a new site, PolishSource has actually been online since 2008. They recently merged with HeavenTracker to form HeavenSource, a new Gazelle based torrent site (full details about HS here). The merger apparently did not pay off, with the end result being PolishSource finally de-merging from HS. HS continues to operate as a private tracker to date while PolishSource has once again moved to a separate home as an independent entity.
