Since Mininova is gone, the only other option I can think of is isohunt. However, a lot of the shows I liked could only be found on mininova. Are there any other torrent tracker websites out there? You can PM them to me if you don't want to share it over the net.
 
eztv. Nuff said. About the only "safe" and decent public tracker I have found.

Mind you, I recently went over to using thebox (private tracker for UK-produced stuff) for a lot of my stuff, and I am loving it- found an obscure BBC show from 2007 on there that I could not find anywhere else. Somebody was poisoning that torrent though, but at least you can get them banned. Only downside is that I can't keep a decent seed ratio up and therefore have to donate to stop myself getting banned. Don't mind much though, $20 for 25GB isn't too bad IMO.
 
I use torrentz.com to search for torrents. Torrent's speed really not an issue (see my sig).
For some shows, I use private trackers, such as immortalseed, or others like it. Used to have a Torrentleech account, but it's pointless (see my sig)
 
There's still a bay.
 
But it's not a very reliable place, well, for some people.

I've never had trouble from my ISP or anything, then again I only get 12gb a month to use so I don't get very much...

freshon.tv is pretty easy to be a member of, and they have HD content from pretty much every channel (even F1), and of course Top Gear. I always get 100% speed from them.

+ rep.. was mostly concerned about my F1 coverage as mininova was the only one that had the quickest torrent out after a race. BBC > SPEED TV


also, Wheeler Dealers is amazing and couldn't find that anywhere else.

29.99?/month gets you a seedbox which will produce >>1TB upload in one month. Just saying ;).
 
How do seedboxes work? You have to pay for them monthly or something?
 
you basically rent a server monthly and set it up via remote desktop. Then you install a torrent app, upload your torrents to it and make insane upload speeds.

I used Ubuntu desktop with uTorrent in a virtual windows machine. Had it for 2 months, did ~4TB upload ;)

...and, to say it as it is, have moved yourself from "likely to stay under the radar" to "perfect RIAA lawsuit material".
 
Well, you would try to rent a seedbox in countries where suing individual P2P users are not common. I never liked private trackers just because of the need of keeping ratios. I have slow upload speeds, so it takes me forever to upload till 1:1.

on most trackers, even with 1tb up you are still amongst the small fishes.
 
Arr.
 
The bay no longer hosts a tracker, but most client can use DHT anyways, so the torrents still works.
