They have taken it down for the Time Being.
But I am almost 100% Sure that it be up in the Near Future.
They would have ton’s of Back-Up’s around this World.
They might of Killed this Server place.
The Government trying to make the Internet a Dictatorship might of run the Battle but they are a Long Way from Winning the War

Yeah - I agree won’t be down for long.
The site is down at the moment. So How do you get Access to the .Torrent Files then?

I get mine through torrentz.eu which searches the main torrent sites including Pirate Bay & kickass.
The thing I liked about Pirate bay was the comments which indicate whether a file is legit and how good the quality is. |

I use Google, type in say "Fury Torrent", then take my pick. Good luck shutting Google down  |

Typical ignorant politician who has no idea, what next? Strip search Aussies coming back from overseas who have purchased DVD's? Morons. Oh well more tax payer money wasted.
RRRRRRRR |
Shows they want the Internet to be like Run by the Government and you have to do what ever the Government says.
These guys get give Millions from the Billion Dollar Compaines to stop this.
Just so they can rip us off and make more Billions

QA time
Why do I download shows & movies?
A. Re TV Shows or serials. I got sick and tired of watching a series that starts say Weds 8.30pm, then a couple of weeks later the rating are low so it's shifted to Mon 10.30pm then it disappears totally. Throw in a TV series that is 12 months old that has already been viewed in the US and is all over the WWW. Now I just download them and watch them in my own time. Does that cost the movie business money? Well I miss the commercials but when they are on I am not watching anyway so no. I still pay my foxtel subscription so I would suggest so far my activity hasn't cost them anything.
Now Movies, I simply don't like going to the Cinemas, only time I go is Gold Class and that's rare. If I like a show I would download it when it becomes available in DVD quality. That normally means it has run its race at the Cinemas or its just a crap show or it has been leaked by someone as a DVD screener on the inside.
If it wasn't available to download I would wait till it came out on TV or Foxtel. Again I have not cost the movie businesses money in my actions.
Microsoft battled piracy for years with exorbitant charges on its OS Software and has turned around and made it's OS software cheaper and affordable. Pirated versions of windows 7/8 is now rare.
I use Steam for my games, it's affordable. If we ever get ultra High speed broadband in this Country. Movies and TV shows will be watched via the net. Foxtel, Free TV will become non existent. |
.
Ditto,
I get frustrated with FTA TV putting shows on then moving them around and taking them off. If I could have got Arrow season 2 on Foxtel I would have happily just set the series link record like I did for Game of Thrones and wouldn't have had to download them.
Now that I've seen them I'm unlikely to spring for DVD Box Sets, but that's the same regardless how I actually watched them.
Same as Movies. I dislike going to the movie cinema too. I just don't enjoy the experience, I'd much prefer to watch it in the comfort of my own home. So if I want to watch it, I'll download it or wait til it comes on Foxtel or FTA TV.
Easiest way to stop so called "piracy" is to make digital downloads available legally at a reasonable price. |
Spot On. Movie should be no more then $5 and a Series at $20 at most and this IF it had 20 Eps +

We've got off fairly lightly here in Aus, but I don't trust the current government not to sell us out to the snakes in Hollywood. I'll keep my activities on the down low and stop when I can legally watch things for a reasonable price (I already have Quikflix streaming, but it's very limited, has too much 'premium' content and is kinda a shit company). I'm hoping Netflix can do well when they launch here, and there is NO way I'm paying for Foxtel. |
What VPN you use and what speeds you get Downloading and Uploading.
I use a Seedbox to seed on Private Torrent Trackers.So I can keep my Ratio Up

I was wondering why I couldn't access it.
LOL.
P.S-Hey Wokko what VPN do you use and how much does it cost per month? |
So what is the New URL for Pirate Bay?

I use CyberGhost. I'm only on a couple of private trackers, an AFL one where I have such a huge ratio I could hit and run every download from here on out and not worry and an MMA site where I struggle to stay above 1:1
Cyberghost still lets me Dload at 1MB/s when I connect to Romania. I'm only using it because I got a free premium account, but I might continue once it runs out, it's not bad. |
