Torrent Download: the 10 Best Torrent Sites

Published on Tuesday, 23 August 2011 in

The Top 10 Reader Favorite Torrent Sites are listed below in random order. This changing list is compiled from reader email suggestions. This list is updated weekly.


1. Torrent Funk

Torrent Funk is a crowd pleaser. TF employs 'verified torrent' tagging to help reduce the number of fakes you will experience. Additionally, the cross-movie recommendations are very helpful, and multiple About.com readers have strongly recommended Torrent Funk.  Give this site a try and let us know if you like it.

2. Demonoid

Demonoid is the benchmark private torrent site. All other private P2P communities compare themselves to Demonoid, and even with the massive competition, Demonoid still remains a top site in the eyes of downloaders everywhere. If you successfully get a registered membership at Demonoid, do not abuse it. Thousands of people are happy to take your spot if you do not share files and maintain your requisite ratio.

3. Kick Ass Torrents

Kick Ass Torrents is a new favorite site with a growing community.  The interface is a distinctive earth color, and the search results display in a useful format of columns, including torrent health.  The best part of Kick Ass Torrents is their comment and feedback system... the user community watches the quality of torrents, and offers their recommendations and warnings.
Kick Ass Torrents could become a very big player in the P2P world of 2010.  Check these folks out, and let's see if they grow in user size.

4. BTjunkie

BTjunkie is a solid torrent service for many reasons: it has a massive database, it offers torrent email updates of new additions, Twitter updates, and useful reporting and comment features.

5. VCDQ

VCDQ.com is technically not a torrent site... rather, it is a verification site that employs a committee of serious users to confirm torrents. Ideal for movie fans who are seeking new releases, VCDQ.com will indeed tell you if legitimate torrent files have been found and verified for that particular movie. You just need to copy the torrent names and paste them into a torrent search engine like Isohunt.com to locate the seeds. Definitely give VCDQ.com a try; this is a great resource for avoiding fake torrent files and finding true files faster.

6. Torrent Tree

Gary and his team of P2P programmers bring us a new site in Ajax code language. Like any metasearch engine, Torrent Tree pulls its results from many other search engines. But Torrent Tree pulls *more* search results than any other current metasearch site. Definitely give these new players a try.

7. BitSnoop

Bitsnoop
NEW: BitSnoop was recommended by reader Melody, who speaks very highly about its navigability, reliability, and clean design. Using a growing community of users to help police the content, BitSnoop offers minimal advertising and reassuring tagging of good torrents. Look for the green 'verified' tags, and you're bound to find good downloads here. Definitely try BitSnoop.com, and let us know what you think of this newer site.

8. Fenopy

Fenopy has some compelling features. Fenopy is fully integrated with IMDB and Last.fm radio, so it has some friendly methods for browsing and discovering movies and music. A graphics gallery of large and motivating thumbnails adorns the home page, and the fake finder feature is also very useful for avoiding bad files. Definitely give Fenopy a try.

9. Cinema Torrents

CinemaTorrents.com offers something really unique: IMDB ratings and vote information right on the search page. You can see public opinions on the movie itself before you download.

10. Isohunt

Isohunt is offered at three different servers:  'Isohunt Lite',  'Isohunt.hk'. and the original Isohunt.com. The Canadian Recording Industry Association has forcibly compelled Isohunt in April of 2010 to change its torrent indexing, or else be prosecuted for secondary copyright infringement.  Accordingly, Isohunt Lite is formatted to be a form of 'Web-wide torrent Google', but with the sorting, ranking, and user rating features of Isohunt.com.  Isohunt.com continues to operate under an umbrella of threat of being shut down, so don't wait to use this service while you can. Details of the CRIA lawsuit are available at the Isohunt Lite web page above.
August 2010:  Isohunt.com has been fueled by adult advertising.  It's not quite pornographic, but Russian dating service ads abound.  This will be a turnoff for some users, but the Isohunt.com service is still one of the very best torrent indices you will find online.
