Hi. With private trackers you usually need an invitation from someone who is already a member. As far as Demonoid goes, I'm not sure about them being private or not and I say that only because I added a torrent from them to my seedbox and the seedbox classified them as not private. Just fyi. :)

Hi Asylum,

I wouldn't guess that Demonoid wouldn't be safe since it's not private. Would RuTracker.org be private? Or what about Adamsfile which is FTP for music? As far as RuTracker goes, it showed some words of the movie in a different language. I am looking for English. I don't really know any members who could give me invites even if I ask in the proper section.

Hi, rocky.
You should look in this thread for BT private sites that are open for sign up.

Join two or three of them (different ones open up every day) and use those to download your stuff from.

People may be of the opinion that it's mainly the ones that kinda suck that open their doors to sign-ups but it's not true. Private tracker sites are basically pretty much identical, just join a few and keep good ratios there. Look to download their ratio building free leech torrents and use their bonus system if they have one.
Basically there are so many private trackers now that each one gives you every opportunity to maintain a good ratio :)

Thank you very much!

usenet.nl, is a good alternate

posts in the newsgroups section here claim otherwise

Web-based usenet downloaders seem to be good alternatives. They offer free (limited) services, as well as premium ones. As far as I can tell, it works pretty well.
