"War between assholes" would be a more appropriate name. ;)

You think Demonoid is/was elitist? Sure they have invites, but they have over one million members, and most give out invites freely.

You do realize that there are private trackers with only several thousand members and very few have invites.

Dammit man. I had a 3:1 ratio that I worked on so that I could just download from there the rest of my life without risking my membership. I was up to like 150gb:375gb as of late. All I wanted was to download the new Silverstein cuz I'm too lazy to go get it from my friend's house. Eff you CRIA.

How is anyone supposed to give out an invite when the website is offline? :confused:

LoKe, by saying "site's return, whenever that happens" I meant "When site goes back online."

I fail at English.

edit: Million members? I am willing to bet the site will be back up.

I used Demonoid for about a week. Just didn't like it. Found another and am very happy with them.

Hmm... things are looking grim for Demonoid.

Guess I'm going to have to start shopping around.

Before anyone flames me for d/l'ing, I buy/pay for what is good and I support many things. I use d/l'ing as a way to test things before buying so to speak.

Anyways, this summer I got an email sent by some movie company for d/ling Unleashed (yeah, I know, I know; don't d/l, it was a terrible movie, etc, etc) and it got me thinking. I saw myself as a poor lonely college student vs a huge industry out to protect their work (which is not always good, BTW). But then I put myself in their shoes; to them, we (d/l'ers) are a huge entitiy they have to combat and they are the lone company in their case.
