Hi all,

My seedbox subscription is expiring and after using it for more than an year, I realised that I'm wasting my money on it. All the private trackers that I'm a member of doesn't have any unique content that I seek, that can be easily gotten off public trackers/hosts.

Anyways, my point being, seedboxes are an overkill for me when all I want to do is download torrents over http/ftp.

furk.net fits really fits my needs well @ EUR6.99/mon, which is the max I would pay for a service like this.

Now the question is, before I start paying for such a service - has anyone actually used furk.net or other bittorrent proxies before? If so, what's your opinion? How are the download speeds like? Do they limit the number of parallel connections? What about HTTPS support?

Looking forward for your answers/reviews.

Thanks!

Even OpenVPN UDP ones on non-standard ports?
