So what exactly is a specialized tracker?

[Villalltheway]

so there is no such thing as a general tracker, because general trackers specialize in 0 day stuff.

Yeah like the internet specialises in porn but then you have other spoilers like facebook and twitter...

Also if you want to eat toad meat stuffed with interesting molluscs like octopus you don't go to kfc but fongs chinese restaurant because you know your chances lie better at finding that kind of stuff there..

and if you want to die by being shot,you move to tijùaná,mexico ...so specialised to me is where you know you are most likely to find what you are looking for.

[Mister Moo]

any site that's not 0day is specialized.

so there is no such thing as a general tracker, because general trackers specialize in 0 day stuff, so every tracker out there is specialized, so why have different categorys for them, when every tracker can be called specialized lol

Yes i am being a pedantic cunt, but i just find it stupid to categorise them like they are now.

You yourself was a member of a general tracker for little while. no distinction between scene and non scene. Anyone can up whatever they want, no matter quality. Thankfully people there are for the most part quality conscious. You can expect to find pretty much anything there. Or is that a specialized anything tracker

i don't really care , just download.. maybe seed back and that's it . kthxbye

so wny bother posting.

and exclusive to me means, on a tracker anyway, they have exclusive content, as on no other tracker has it, or will get it, as its been done all by the uploader of the torrent, not a silly pack, but a P2P release like some HD Groups, but they never show up anywhere else.

Obviously the way filesharing goes, that means no tracker has any exclusive content, as it will get spread elsewhere, doesnt matter how hard they try to keep it inhouse.

specialized in my opinion is a tracker that has some unique realeases like : AFR , blu-ray , flac other . You know trackers containing those torrents don't need to exemplify . It's easy to make a pack yes... but it's harder to make it unique. It all depends on what do you want from a tracker , what are you interested in : movie , e-books , HD , mp3 , flac , etc. you have a large variety .

so there is no such thing as a general tracker, because general trackers specialize in 0 day stuff.

yes they have a large quantitty of torrents. not specialised .

This days most of the trackers are specialised in speeds, lots of torrents , lots of members and a big active forum.

TvT.ro is a TV based tracker. They have TV Shows, anime, cartoons, documentaries and sport based shows...

yes TV trackers are good you can call it specialised but i can take same stuff from a general tracker , some differance in some shows.

obviously

Specialized usually means, one offers and do specific things uniquely in one area more then others. Take your site for example, BG specializes in gaming content for modern systems like Xbox and Wii. But you also have some retro stuff (Roms) but BG is more known for the modern stuff which classifies as a specialized torrent site for games (IMO).

Bit me is another good example but they take specialized more literally by only offering ebooks and other elearning stuff only.

[walkman79]

specialized (Amer.)
adj. made for a specific purpose; characterized by expertise in a specific subject (also specialised)


Ex: Journeyman printers generally specialized as compositors or pressmen and, although a compositor might on occasion take a turn at the press (especially in a small shop), few pressmen could set type efficiently.

So, even though trackers like What or Waffles have apps they are specialized in music. See KFC as an analogy, they are specialized in fried chicken but they also have side dishes and desserts .

Furthermore, there is no tracker that offers more music than What... If it's not specialized in music, how can it be classified? a general tracker??? maybe a tracker specialized in music, apps and ebooks? but they only care about music, they don't care about the other stuff.
