We're not sure how it ranks on other planets, but it's certainly a serious contender for that title. There are two flavours: the stripped-back Vuze Leap, and the fully fledged Vuze Plus. Both offer torrent download, media playback and support for magnet file links, but Vuze Plus adds integrated virus protection and the ability to preview media files. One of Vuze's key selling points is its interface, which slices through jargon and makes even the more advanced features accessible to new users.
Vuze also offers bandwidth limiting, IP filtering, and all the other features you'd expect from a robust torrent client. Definitely one of the first options to consider.

Fancy something that resembles uTorrent without the unwanted software? No problem. Want to add alphabetical downloading, move downloaded files to specific directories according to the file type, adjust speed according to network conditions, create pretty graphs, schedule everything, integrate with Chrome or Firefox, or batch-rename downloads?

Read our full Deluge review. It's attracted some criticism over the years, however: it's ad-supported and many users argue that the most recent versions are a little too heavy on the advertising and bundled software front. Make sure you read each step of the installer carefully and uncheck any software you don't want to install. That aside, uTorrent is useful, effective and doesn't gobble up too much of your system's resources: the entire app mainly runs in your web browser.
Although it isn't the official BitTorrent app, it's been maintained by BitTorrent for the last decade. It's worth noting that uTorrent has a record of security problems, the most recent of which had the potential to let hackers control key functions of the client and spy on users' downloads.
Also, you can find all old and new shows via its dedicated browse option. Or, if you know the year of release, you can search your desired content with year.

The original Nyaa platform worked great until its shutdown in Since then, Nyaa. It has a friendly and navigable interface so that every anime lover can access the desired media very easily. The only thing with this site is its limited content diversity that predominantly includes content from Japan, Korea, and China. But that is quite okay given that it focuses on anime only. Here is one more torrent search engine saving you from the hassle of browsing through torrent sites. The site has a simple, somewhat unattractive interface , though at least, for me.
However, Google had once marked this site as suspicious as its Safe Browsing Feature reports parts of the sites linked with malware. Yet, it presently labels this site as safe. So, we urge anyone trying to use this site to have a robust VPN and anti-malware installed on the device.

Launched in , the site is an excellent torrent search engine with direct magnet links to safe torrents. While KickAss Torrents is also up in some way, iDope continues to function as intended. It also has some unofficial mirror links through which users can access this site if not directly accessible.
Nonetheless, a VPN always serves as a workaround to evade this restriction. However, at iDope, users may not find as extensive a database of P2P files here as the key players.

It is neither a torrent database nor among any torrent tracker list out there. It does not store any content and hence, does not warrant safety. It aims at providing free content for BitTorrent Network.

Users can find a vast torrent collection at this site, including movies, TV shows, music, radio, software, anime, games, ebooks, tutorials, and a lot more. So, you can imagine the extensive torrent database hosted here. Though, during its survival, it did suffer tough times, following which its website experienced downtimes.
The longest being a 2-years extended downtime. Furthermore, the sudden demise of its founder alias Deimos was another blow to the site. However, it did revive with all its glory in and is currently available via various mirror links. At present, the site is only banned in the UK and Ukraine.

It offers a vast torrent database with content belonging to various niches and an above-average download speed. The overall site interface is not so attractive. In fact, some users may face difficulty in browsing through all the options. After going through this extensive list of two dozen torrent websites, you might think of every torrent resource as safe.
And that is — you cannot trust and use every website offering free or paid torrenting. Although, you can distinguish the safe resources from the fake ones using the criteria explained at the beginning of this guide.
Yet, there are some sites that you should avoid using at all costs. Here we quickly list them out for you. The main reason to steer clear of this website is its awkward advertising practices. Briefly, it frequently redirects visitors to other links that may feature suspicious or downright malicious content.
In addition, while the site exists via different domains, every domain does the same. Hence, visiting this platform exposes you to adware, malware, and other cyber threats. Plus, the spammy invitations that people may see of this website on public forums can be annoying. Another website that you should avoid for torrenting is IPTorrents.
In fact, it was once a pretty useful resource for torrentors. However, with time, it overhauled to become more of a directory than a torrent hosting site. Thus, becoming far less valuable than others. Precisely, it first requires you to download the client, which may be troublesome and risky for average users. Even if you bear with that, the tons of grammatical and linguistic errors on this website would surely distract you.
But, for beginners, this might be a key thing to know because people usually perceive torrenting as copyright infringement means. However, you can benefit from this amazing facility in a lot more useful and legal ways.
Some of the things that you can get from torrenting include the following. You can look up the sites for your preferred content by typing the title in the search bar. We tried downloading obscure titles from even over a decade ago, and we found that there were still happy seeders to help out. You can also look at our list of Pirate Bay alternatives for more options.
RARBG is a large directory of torrents, famous for a very active community of seeders and high-quality torrents. Its library size is decent, and it gets updated often, meaning that you have a high chance of finding new torrents on the site. The only difference is that ad intrusion is more annoying on RARBG, so take that into account when choosing one of the two.
There are a lot of phishing scams going around with RARBG-looking sites, so make sure you learn about secure browsing. Website: X website. Some people use it to browse for game torrents as well, but from our research, it does look like both RARBG and The Pirate Bay have more torrents in that category, especially for older titles.
A few years ago, X was a bad choice for any torrenting, since it was clunky to navigate and it posed a lot of security risks. Since then, it went through an entire site revamp , making it seamless to browse and safer. For shows and movies, you also have improved browsing functionalities, like searching by award nomination. Mirrors: x. Website: Torrentz2 website. While this is not that big of a torrent site — only amassing million users a month, and unable to sport much of a library for general torrents — Torrentz2 is very good for finding music.
Not to mention — any type of browsing options, like searching by album, artist or song would be greatly appreciated. Second, ad intrusion is minimal and the interface is beautiful. Lastly, classics are readily available on the platform. If you want high-definition episodes of your favourite shows, EZTV is the place to go. We searched for older titles like Two and a Half Men, and it had a decent library of options.
We even tried going for more obscure titles, like the British show Midsomer Murders. EZTV has a large variety of torrents for the new releases in that show, and packages of older episodes.
We tried browsing for older titles, and it has a good library, both for PC and consoles. You can subscribe to different categories or titles and get a feed of new torrents for them. Update: Despite recent claims to the contrary, Zooqle still seems to be up and running. For instance, we received a remark from one of our French readers that Zooqle has been shut down, so we checked with a VPN if it was blocked in France.
In all three instances, we were successful. Therefore, we have to conclude that, as of now, Zooqle is accessible to, at least, a great portion of internet users. Needless to say, we will check this regularly and keep you updated! LimeTorrents is very good for new releases. Mirrors: limetorrents. Not a torrent site per se, Torrends. Mirrors: None. This website used to be called torrents. Website: Torrentdownloads website.
Attention: This website attempts to open an additional browser tab with advertisements. Not harmful, but annoying. Asian titles specifically seem to take a big part of their servers. Mirrors: torrentdownloads. Lastly, and perhaps most importantly for many, private torrenting sites generally have significantly higher streaming speeds than public ones, because members have seeding quotas they need to comply with.
Last but not least, Bibliotik is the largest private torrenting site for downloading ebooks. We recommend uTorrent , but Bittorrent will work just as fine. Once you installed a torrent client, download the torrent from one of the best torrent sites in the list above, and open it using the client.
If you already installed the client, the torrent file will automatically open in this screen:.
