ExtraTorrent.com - A Rising Star on Public BitTorrent
The timing couldn’t have been any better for ExtraTorrent.com. In the wake of shocking news that rocked the P2P community with The Pirate Bay selling out and even removing its tracker from public torrents; and Mininova filtering out illegal content - torrenters are being forced to move on to greener pastures. ExtraTorrent.com is one such torrent site that has picked up the pace, quickly skyrocketing to become one of the Internet’s top contenders among public torrent indexers.

As torrenters flock to find alternative download spots, don’t expect ExtraTorrent to succumb to the same fate as their hobbled colleagues. Being hosted in torrent-friendly Ukraine suggests they can adequately sustain the influx of new users that are making the switch from TPB, Mininova, and Isohunt (the Big Three - all of which have legal woes).

Since launching in November of 2006, ExtraTorrent is considered a relative newcomer to the public torrent indexing scene. After just one year of operation, ET had propelled itself to an Alexa Rank at the position of #36 among all torrent sites on the ‘Net, and #28 for public ones. Flash ahead to July 2009, and ExtraTorrent is now poised at position #9 overall for public torrent indexers and quickly moving up the ladder.

ExtraTorrent.com Statistics
Online since: November 16, 2006.
Number of servers: 6 servers host the site and various features.
Daily ‘unique’ visitors: 350,000+
Torrents Indexed: 1,418,693
Total torrents downloaded: 208,964,659
With over 200 million torrents downloaded to date and 350,000 unique daily visitors, ET has maintained humility through it all and not strayed far from their grassroots. FileShareFreak was lucky enough to catch a quick interview with the administrator of ExtraTorrent:

FSF: What’s your take on the current situation with ThePirateBay?

ET Admin: It’s very sad that TPB sold out. They really disappointed all their fans…

FSF: Agreed. But more importantly, what about TPB’s trackers? How much of an impact will this have on public BitTorrent as a whole?

ET Admin: TPB’s tracker is the main one for most public torrents, and half of all torrents in the world will become dead. Of course, this is a bonus to other trackers but none of them are known as such a big brand as TPB.

FSF: What about Mininova and the filtering? Has this hurt them?

ET Admin: Yes, but Mininova is a big indexer and will live with the filters. Though of course, this brings their reputation down.

FSF: Any thoughts on the antipirates: MPAA, IFPI, etc?

ET Admin: These organizations make it look like torrent site owners buy a new Ferrari every month and new properties in Dubai; and that the poor MPAA, IFPI and others are begging & looking for food every day. They moan about losing millions but they earn billions. I think they must count this loss as charity and all people will be happy.

FSF: Well said. Any plans to conform, or add torrent filtering in the future?

ET Admin: Nope. Long live, ET!

ExtraTorrent Features…
Here are just some of ET’s features that keep ‘em coming back for more:

• The "HOT Section" — Located on the left side, HOT is a continuously updated listing of the freshest video torrents on the site, complete with movie poster art. There’s even more hot releases (including adult torrents) to be found directly inside the Hot Torrents page.

• Uploading — All users can upload torrents (both anonymously as a ‘guest’, or from a registered account).

• Trusted Uploaders — Want to be sure to avoid spam & fake torrents? Then download from trusted uploaders and verified uploaders. Be sure to check out the big list of Top Uploaders and Top Members.

Register at ExtraTorrent to receive these privileges:

• Customizable Interface — In the profile, registered members can remove advertising, add an avatar and fully customize the look & feel of ET (including change the default values for sorting torrents, torrents per page, filter out dead or private torrents, etc).

• Online Chat — ET has a live chatbox/shoutbox available to registered members.

• Torrent Bookmarks — The ability to bookmark torrents for downloading at a later time.

• "Watched" Torrents — Similar to an RSS feed setup, users can configure keywords for future torrents coming into the site and be notified upon arrival. To activate, go into your profile, click "ET Torrents" tab, then click on the Watched Torrents link.

Our Last Words:

Of all the public torrent sites in existence, ExtraTorrent.com is the only one with a community feel much like a private tracker. There’s a rep/points system, PM system, profile links, various user classes, verified uploaders, torrent checkers (senior members & admins who validate torrents), members reviews, friendly assistance in the help chat, and even special uploaders & P2P groups who release content exclusively to ET. All this and more, without having to worry about blowing a ratio

This looks like a quote from OBSCENE to me it may be complete bollocks but what a great reply.

Whether you agree or not with me OBS was one classy articulate guy that always put ET first along with his massive EGO & I still miss him the fooktard.
