    thepiratebay alternative

    thepiratebay has been giving me problems today, and I realized that I haven't really explored any alternatives.

    Anyone know a good, public, non-invite torrent site on par with thepiratebay for days when it's down, like today?

    A thread in general got bumped today with some more invited for demonoid, but is that any good too? I'm not familiar with what are the best torrent sites, and/or why it's good. Anyone care to explain?

    Isohunt is pretty awesome. It's basically Google for torrents. It's free, public, and doesn't require you to register or anything.

    Mininova used to be good, but then they got into some legal shit, and now they can only host books and some music.

    I've been curious about this site for a while. How much would I have to stroke your penis to get an invite? lol :/

    Is demonoid still up and working? Haven't downloaded anything in a couple of weeks (and at work now) and that was what I primarily used, so I have no idea if it's still around or not.

    Demonoid works for all I need, it does go down on occasion but I've never had big problems with it.

    For TV I use EZTV.
    Anime, I check sub group sites first.
    Porn, empornium.

    If I can't find what I need there, I hit TPB and ISOhunt.
    I've also been eyeing Monova a bit.

    Honestly I wouldn't suggest any public tracker. Ever since I got a DMCA letter a bit over a year ago, I stopped torrenting. Then I got an invite to TorrentLeech. While I don't download like crazy, and there have been some infiltrations (I think there have been everywhere) I've yet to get anything (knock on wood) I really don't suggest anyone use anything public, unless you know you're not gonna get tagged for it.
