Well, as far as HDbits go there isn't much freeleech.
But it's not hard to seed there and the userclasses are based on how much you download while maintaining a good ratio, so...
nope. dont know.
Not on HDBits, but IPT has a pack with some FL ESiR releases. ;)
need an invite :(
I think most of their releases are posted on Usenet. A search on NZBMatrix lists 276 movies. That's out to 270 days so if it's an average of 1 post per day that's about 200 movies still available on Astraweb. Okay, so Usenet isn't BT or even P2P, but if you've got the space & you can fork over a few bux to Astraweb, you can download over a terabyte of movies just like that.
I never would have guessed that.Quote:

This is why you often find EuReKas encodes are much larger than a good HD encode which was properly tested. They also excessivley filter encodes with things like sharpening and I even read once they added digital grain because they felt the original source was "to clean." The job of the encoder is to produce a smaller file thats transparent to the original source, not impose their own personal ideas of how a particular movie should look.Quote:

I laughed so hard when they started their own tracker because they couldn't handle the critisism at BitHDTV, the truth hurts I guess.
hmm i see.. well you seem to know your goods..hahaQuote:

It all depends on whether or not you're a purist. Purists will hate Eureka's encodes, others may not. But personal attacks on Eureka's fans like claiming they don't understand HD encoding just doesn't fly. You either like their enhancements or you hate them. (I personally am not a fanboy of any one group so don't try to paint me as a Eureka lover.)Quote:

had to say it, sorry.
Totally pointless discussion, and OT, if you don't like eureka's releases just don't download it, it's simple as that...
