This forum was opened in 2007 and after nearly 16 years needs to be retired. The forum software is long out of date and has become progressively harder to patch in order to run on newer hosting software. I have done what I can to get the forum up in a read-only view, but posting will remain broken. A few old members still hang out on Discord if you'd like to stop by to say hello.
Thanks for the memories. -Lhurgoyf

I still use Newzbin and Usenet personaly. I can download full DVDs from there in about 30 minutes. It downloads at the full speed of my connection with no "build up" time like with torrents. I get the full 8mbits/s which comes out to be more like 1,200 Kbytes a second. It's great though. Most anything you find on any other Warez site, shows up on Newzbin first, then spreads from there. It costs $12 a month, but considering I download like 4-5 perfect DVD movies a night sometimes, it's worth it. All the games, audio books, eBooks, movies, tv shows, etc. It's worth it, especialy at that speed.
Other then that, the torrent site I used to use was www.torrentspy.com

Get rid of netflix then if you have a decent connection. I download perfect DVDs in a half hour man. Netflix can't touch that. I get some movies in real high quality a few days after they hit theaters, and sometimes before. Like CARS, I had a near DVD quality version of it less than a week after it hit theaters for my son and I to watch here at home. Personally, since netflix takes time to send things, and has limits in how many you get, and doesn't supply the games/books/etc etc, I'd go with a usenet server. Seriously, my wife names a movie she wants to watch, 30 minutes later we're watching it. It's that simple.
Just a thought :)
