Nice, just got that, it seems to be similar to Soulseek but for all torrents, not just music. Still very little on the motorsport front, sadly.

Eztv is running, but painfully slowly so I guess they have some issues at the moment.

Have just downloaded a 2.0 Gb tv show from Eztv and running fine for me, program downloaded in about two minutes speeds as fast as 13.8 Mb, maybe try a new proxy.

Any updates for "Music Torrents"?

Not having much luck connecting to "Pirate Bay" or "Soul Search" (sorry, Soul Seek), the latter quite highly recommended.

What kind of music? There are a lot of genre specialist sites, depending upon your taste.
What are you looking for?

I use a tiny metasearch piece of software called BitChe which I find to be very useful.

EZTV seems to be closed at the moment.
I only just came across this post and Bit Che looks very good, similar to the scraper I used to use to find Usenet uploads (which nowadays are almost useless thanks to very effective US Government actions against Usenet servers years ago, I keep a 'block' Usenet account for the occasional need, costs nothing apart from the amount of download credit you buy).

Thanks.

I've looked at Bit Che and the links to torrent sites seem completely out of date. As I've tried to set up Jackett in the past and found it too difficult, I'll stick to browsing the torrent sites individually.

I enjoy music pretty much across the full range (aside from "Rap Cr@p" and similar shite) - in this instance I was actually looking for a specific album - "Tears Roll Down (Greatest Hits 82–92)"

Didn't have much luck myself with "Bit Che", but thanks anyway.

Any working links for Pirate Bay? I've tried several without success which I haven't had happen for quite some time.

Thanks BB.

It's not working, but I think I've found the issue... I do use and download many Torrents, but am careful and have a fair bit of security on my PC to avoid "mishaps" shall we say. One seems to be playing funny buggers in connection with a couple of Browsers (Brave included) - this is "Bitdefender" which has worked very well for me in the past.... And let's be fair, it's only protecting my PC now! :D :wink:

Cheers BB - with a small adjustment to "PC Protection" and going through my VPN all is sorted! :thumb:

Thanks for the link!
