Demonoid Gone

With demonoidh.jpg killed I’m in mourning. After I felt a little better I wrote a little more here because the situation is probably about to get worse. And I wrote a little bit more when they closed Zcult.

But at first, when I couldn’t get into the site I got the news from here. This other story I found isn’t giving me any joy either; Prosecutor Announces Charges Against The Pirate Bay. Update* Demonoid has opened a forum.

Sad

Nov 15 update. So you guys need to leave some comments about possible alternatives. Over at TorrentFreak they’re just doing useless arguing back and forth. I checked out demonoiders and that looks like a forum, but I’m not joining. And deviloid.net is just s e x. TorrentSpy is just all old stuff now, since they blocked US users, but I use a Hungarian proxy when I visit. ThePirateBay site is not really user friendly, as far as I’m concerned and Mininova.org is crashing a little tonight, because of the all the demonoid refugees like me. But they do have today’s DCP pack.

Update 11 months later. Oct of 08 and the site’s been back for months. Having a great old time again!
