SuprNova Off for Good

Jonbo298 · 12-19-2004, 02:13 PM

Kind of a sad day for torrent people. www.torrentbits.org and www.suprnova.org took themselves offline to avoid any legal matter as the lawsuits are starting to come to some torrent sites.

I think some of the mirror sites for suprnova.org are still up. kinda sucks cuz there was a couple links to some old tv show episodes i wanted to see. lol

other then that i never used that site anyway. so easy come easy go :P

i had read a while ago tho that suprnova is involved in the creation of a new type of bittorrent, one that doesnt require a site to host links and apparently is much faster

but..eh, i dont really like bit torrents much. never seen one go very fast.

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!...*sigh*

now i can't get anymore playstation roms

*sigh* oh well...

loki torrents was up awhile ago but now its not working either

Looks like this is the death of many BT sites. But hopefully that suprnova program being made comes soon

*edit* It seems to be down for maintenance so who knows

Bittorrent technology for World of Warcraft (downloading the Beta) is terribly slow. Also, the upload us usually higher than the download! But now I have a upload limiter, so that should work.

Never used torrent.

I only downloaded a couple CDs from them.

There's a gaggle of other torrent sites, but this one will be missed.

Yeah agreed... Now I have to find another site to look upon every few days.

Mushlafa · 12-26-2004, 02:31 PM

the website is now suprnova.com and its a pay site but it seems pretty dirt cheap considering all of the content thats on there... 29.95 for 2 year servive or like 34 for unlimited...

Jonbo298 · 12-26-2004, 03:25 PM

FYI Mushy, www.suprnova.com is a SCAM (same with .net, etc..)

GameMaster · 12-26-2004, 03:39 PM

So where do PC users go for their file sharing needs now?

Good ol' morpheus.

Slyck first reported on eXeem earlier this month. eXeem is reported to be a decentralized version of BitTorrent - a network where centralized trackers do not exist. At this time, insufficient documentation exists regarding the network or the project, however many have debated whether the new decentralized network can even call itself BitTorrent. Time will settle that debate.
