www.blueyoyo.com

its 10.000W a month, but well worth it with DL speeds ranging from 360kbs-900kbs. They have movies, TV, cartoons, games, and many more. Further, they are not a torrent, so you need no special programs.

I've been using them for over a year, as have others on this site...
THey have the newest TV shows usually a day or two after the US premeir. Movies are a case by case basis, but generally, again withing a day or two of the US premier. Occasionally before it if DVD screeners are leeked. My suggestion is to get a free membership (you can't DL) and see if they have what you want before you sign up. Note, I don;t know if you can still get a "Viewing" pass, that was a while ago...

if you still want torrents, i like www.torrentspy.com and www.thepiratebay.org. i realize that you can get *some* of the torrents from these sites on isohuht, but i find for some reason that my downloads are faster if i get them from the torrentspy site than if i get them from isohunt. maybe something to do with the tracker...

Dont pay for what you can get for free. Torrents will be much faster. The release of shows will be 1-2hrs of U.S airings, not 1-2 days like blueyoyo.

I agree totally. With modern high speed internet, coupled with bittorrent, you can download ANYTHING you want for FREE.

Bittorrent is not difficult to learn (I suggest utorrent.com) and it has fast, VERY quick releases of TV shows and anything else.

MININOVA (search EZTV or VTV) and Piratebay are the bomb for TV shows!

Don't waste your money. Blueyoyo is redundant...and CHARGING people for other people's copyrighted stuff is big peeve of mine!

I am new to this - I have been using emule. It's free but extremely slow.

Have also had problems with a couple of movies not being true to name. In two instances I thought I was downloading 'ordinary' movies but when I played them they were hard porn - absolutely nothing to do with the titles. I'm not into that sort of movie so I was very annoyed and deleted them.

What a waste of time and download quota !!!

Download a bittorrent client (utorrent / bittornado etc) read the FAQ for it. Go to one of the above mentioned websites and start d/ling. In my experience I have never had a problem with a mislabled torrent.

Bitcommet is very nice.

But I have realized that Limewire is usually equally as fast as most torrents.

bitcomet is not nice, and most private trackers banned it.

Unless you don't know WTF you are doing in setting up your bittorrent, or you are not looking at the number of seeders/health of the file, it would be, in principle and concept impossible to have a P2P client work as efficiently or even 1/5th the speed as a properly seeded and configured bittorrent.
