Been waiting patiently for a week to get my monthtly download limit again, and this morning i jump on Mininova to start a few dowloads of my favorites and I find they have been closed down.



Any one sugest any other good sites for similar non poker dowloads.

Do you use torrentz.com as your first port of call?

A mate posted this on the other forum last week.

From now on, only Content Distribution torrents are allowed.

Mininova limits its activities to Content Distribution service
Published on November 26, 2009 in Mininova-related news.

Hi all,

Today is an important day in the history of Mininova. From now on, we are limiting Mininova.org to our Content Distribution service. By doing so, we comply with the ruling of the Court of Utrecht of last August.

Unfortunately the court ruling leaves us no other option than to take our platform offline, except for the Content Distribution service. According to the verdict (Dutch link) we have to prevent uploads of torrents to Mininova that refer to certain titles or to similar-looking titles. We’ve been testing some filtering systems the last couple of months, but we found that it’s neither technically nor operationally possible to implement a 100% working filter system. Therefore, we decided that the only option is to limit Mininova to Content Distribution torrents from now on. We are still considering an appeal at this moment.

We launched our Content Distribution service in 2007. This service allows producers and artists to easily publish and distribute their content for free through Mininova. The launch of Content Distribution has proven to be a success. Countless content owners have used Content Distribution to distribute their content (e.g. albums and documentaries) for free to millions of users. For example, the Dutch band Silence is Sexy released their complete album on Mininova and received the Interactive Award 2009 for doing so. The Dutch television broadcaster VPRO decided to start using Content Distribution in 2009 in order to distribute documentaries.

We would like to thank you for your support. Especially everyone that contributed to Mininova receives a big “thank you!” for the effort! We hope to keep welcoming you on Mininova and our other projects (e.g. Snotr, Dispostable).

Thanks! The Mininova staff

I used piratebay.com the other not bad.

out side of Mininova i have only ever used pokerbay.

so no i havent used torrentz or pirate bay

thanks for the info

[bennymacca]

go to torrentz.com for movies and tv shows that eztv doesn't have.

it will direct you to lots of different sites, one of them being piratebay.

for most tv shows, use www.eztv.it
and yeah, for poker, pokerbay is the best.

That eztv link doesn't seem to work......

[BionicMike]

eztv is the one stop shop for TV shows but it has been on and off for the last couple of days, which has had me worried after the loss of mininova, but I got all my weekly shows last night no probs. Fingers crossed.

[bennymacca]

That eztv link doesn't seem to work......

really?

google eztv and click on the first link. pretty sure its the same address that i posted.

its prolly down like mike said.

best thing about it, is you can add rss feeds straight into utorrent, so you only have to go to the site to add a series, and then the rest can be done in utorrent.

[Swanky]

Not sure why it didn't work before, but it's all go now, thanks mate.
