TorrentSpy shut down

I use to go there quite often when about 2 years ago their search results and torrent file system got really messed up. I also got fed up with all the fake torrents and "spamverts." It wouldn't be a surprise if they shut down due to low traffic and their lack of enthusiasm when it came to site upkeep. But shutting down by saying they want to preserve client privacy is a nice way to say good-bye.

Ugh thank God... That site was garbage... Damn ESA got me on a torrent from there >:

ARG!! nooooooo lool. Dang!! oh well, thats one site down, about 100 more to go lool. the only thing that annoyed me about torrentspy was when u'd click the text box on the main page, i'd get pop ups, and when i'd click a torrent, but appart from that it was ok. :'-( torrentspy u will be missed!!

I stopped using it after all of there legal trouble in the US. No great problem for me, I just use MiniNova!

As they should......

I stopped using it once axxo left..he was the man..but he posts his stuff in other sites now

torrentspy was a good a couple of years ago but has recently seen a great decline partly due to some of the stupid users that post daft comments on there, fake torrents and because of the overwhelming amount of pop ups and advertising. Sadly, this is one site that im not sorry to see go. There are excellent alternatives such as superfundo for high quality scene movie releases, mininova and isohunt.

As one goes down two more rise.

aXXo is the man, thee best Dvdripper out there. I use Mininova to get his torrents, it's a good thing he is back in business. :]

I wouldnt deny that axxo is one of the best rippers out there, but there are also other rippers such as fxm , duqa etc which provide rips with similar, if not better quality.

Check out the superfundo torrent site which provides guaranteed high quality scene rips.

Yes Superfundo is the place for aXXo (he has his own section)! His work is great and ALWAYS a very high consistent quality and he uses the real DixX codec not XVID so I can play it in my PS3.

Well, I also used that site up until 2 yrs ago. It was a great site, along with the Demon. SInce the friggen US and all it's bullshit tactics and sanctions put a damper on the site, it made a steady decline that led to this. I still say Power to the Torrent users ...long live us. Thanks to Torrentspy for all the great shares and memories..peace

Torrentspy was a very good site until all the attention hit it then it really wasn't worth visiting anymore. As always most torrent sites are good at there beggining stages until the attention really gets on them then it's pretty much goes down hill from there.

ahh it was never that good of a site but it is kind of unnerving to see another one fall to their knees..

whatever though the fake torrent sh*t got old reaaaal quick.

Can't say I will miss them.. I never found anything I wanted on there, just crap and fakes.

Around 2 yrs ago and back they were a legit torrent site. I think they came to life just before demonoid came upon the scene and that was around the end of 04'. They had some great stuff on their, real clean and everyone shouted there. IT started to have a sense of community. Then i moved over to Demonoid. I remember just good things from there.
