Torrentspy has been my source for a while now, so I'm not surprised that it's starting to go tits up. Torrent sites have about a 6-8 month lifespan, then they get discovered by the wrong people. Remember Suprnova?

Yes, I'd never used a private site till now, and I definitely see the difference. However Suprnova was a great site for what it was, and torrentspy was too.
You're right about the hit and runners though.
Blah
torrentspy is pretty much junk now
time to go private

I agree, Private sites are much better, but Torrentspy isn't junk just yet. You can always use it to find new tracker sites, or just come up with more clever searches that aren't blocked as strings. I love that Guy Family show, man CSPAN is awesome! At least they aren't shut down though.

You guys whining about such things are completely naive to things.
Since the legal ramifications of Bittorrent (in the US anyways) still aren't clear, it's becoming more and more costly to battle the MPAA in the courts. This is causing some sites to shut down and others to do things such as what TorrentSpy has done to cover their asses.
I download illegal files so I would never bitch and moan about what happens to Bittorrent sites. I just wish them well and move onto the next one. (not to mention the above mentioned tricks)
Beggars simply can't be choosy.
