Demonoid Shuts Down Again

I think Deimos, was sure that having servers in Canada, was safer than in Netherlands. Unfortunately, that does not appear to be the case. I've always wondered why they did not choose to set the anchor in Sweden, as it appears a lot more friendly culture towards torrent trackers. RIAA, is flexing its muscle in North America due to a strong lobby and stupid governments. I expect Demonoid to be back for sure, but it will be sometime until they find a new home.
The ironic thing is that ISOHUNT went through the same scenario about a year and half and the managed to move their business and servers to Canada. It is obvious that CRIA is trying to make an example out of Demonoid and send a strong message to the community.

[dinomalibu]

Too bad, man...
It´s all I can say....

[GeekMaster1]

If this happened before I don't think it is permanent.
More likely the Canadians will be without it but the rest of us in real countries will still have it.

Hi. I see you are new. Welcome.
Thought I might help you out by showing you Zeropaid's Search Function (to see how well it work, click here!) (http://www.zeropaid.com/bbs/showpost.php?p=517714&postcount=1)

Enjooooy. :icon_salu

... (i'm sweating on a slow 98-percenter!) ...

what site you are entering?

[oldfogy]

But we/you can still do our bit by helping the people who still have unfinished torrents.
Just carry on seeding as before because you will still connect to those people.

Okay so you may not get anything toward your ratio, but so what.....

[robincheema]

Could this be related to Writers strike in US?

[rfbgb]

don't believe in that.....this is just RIAA pressing the goverments

[oldfogy]

One other point I should of mentioned in my earlier post is that for every torrent that people either Stop, Remove or Delete before uploaders complete is a bonus point for the RIAA/MPA industry.

Not to mention that most of those people who do get stopped will probably only go elsewhere to find another torrent, thus putting more strain on the other site and bringing more into focus to the RIAA/MPA the other sites download rate for them to target next.

[valiantsimon]

Hello everybody, with Demonoid going off i am in need of an invite for another site. Can anybody recommend some sites to me and provide me with an invitation code.

[jackal1234]

lmao. you do realize that they only blocked canada based ip addresses because they moved their hosting to quebec (dumb move). shoulda went the same place as isohunt, they've had no problems at all since their move. ur prolly american. check the value of your currency vs. CAD .. whats up with that? :hi

[Mels_Smileys45]

Ehhh, its only a matter of time. Web site based P2P was a dumb idea from the get go. There will be something else to replace it or we can always go back to the best way to share media (fingers crossed!).

[HelenaP]

... go back to the best way to share media (fingers crossed!).

Looking at that ava Mels, your perception of sharing frightens me...

[limepile]

I've decided to boycot canadian goods from now on. Shame, they do a nice line in canned fish.

[benecruz]

I did the search HelenaP. Returned nothing at that time.

[Jorge Jr. & Ancho]

Bit off topic here,


According to my trace Demonoid is not in Canada but is actually in Brazil. Can anyone confirm this.

Heres the link:

He might SORT of have a point there. As long as these sites are on the web they can be shut down.
Is there a way they can protect themselves?

I resent that statement, I'm Canadian and it's very much a real country the last time I checked. Are you one of those idiot-savants who has a problem distinguishing between reality and fantasy? Geography was never your strong subject. Too bad!!

Now that the networks have started a multitude of reruns, they don't want us to watch anything too intellegent, which you or I might download. Roll with the punches.

Excuse me, but I don't suppose you know where the IsoHunt servers are located; Do you?
I thought so!! ::)

There is always Usenet for some of us!!

We even have Canadian beaver. Have you tried that?

Unfortunately, your trace is incorrect. Demonoid servers are very much in Canada. You didn't use tracer's trace. Please, try again. :D

I'm guessing Demonoid will have to seek its new placement either in east Asia (Hong Kong/Malayasia) or northern Europe (Sweden). Unfortunately, bandwidth in east Asia is very expensive, so we'll just have to wait.

[AYEHAN]

Tracker down :/

[1cooldude]

Tracker down :/

servers have been disconnected. I've tried to ping and it's all dead.

i hope they come back up they had allot of good older movies and wernt ratio Nazis

CRIA is american. all the real artists have left and formed their own new coalition. thanks USA. TYVM. @1cooldude ISohunts servers are either located in ontario or they made a dumb move in picking a new server maintenance tech from ontario to add their hardware. doesnt seem likely. ;) raising the flag bro. pwnt by the beaver..................

[enter8]

Although, after Oink, I'm not very fond of Dutch web hosting, I think Demonoid might do okay there.

[valiantsimon]

has anybody got any invitations to revolutiontt or any other comparible site to Demonoid?

I don't know why a small pacific island couldn't be used. Hell, I'd go service the servers! Loads of fish to replace the Canadian stuff I'm not buying anymore. And as I've never tried Canadian Beaver I guess I won't miss it, just not exotic enuf for my tastes. Now your average wahine....mmmm

IsoHunt servers are in Vancover B.C., jackal. As far as, CRIA it is very much a Canadian corporatian representing the interests of RIAA.

lol Isohunt is in my town!!! well i think its a good thing because like 10% of ppl here know about file sharing. Mostly teenagers...

[GeekMaster1]

I wonder if a good %age of p2p is from younger people.
That would probably explain why I cant get a lot of the music or movies I want to DL.

I think a lot of people are still stuck to using Gnutella or even Kazaa which are much more risky for d/l and u/l than bitT or Usenet protocols. Encryption should become everyone's standard for moving large amount of data, as RIAA and MPAA go on a new offensive!! The people who get caught are usually very poorly informed about p2p idea.

[zodden]

I am in demonoid withdrawal. Of all the torrent sites it was by far my favorite. So much stuff posted every day, and interesting stuff. I found the MP3's of a G&R concert that went to when I was a kid back in 1991 that I was shocked to find :)

Only demonoid would have such obscure stuff. Of all the sites it seemed to me that Demonoid was the largest as far as items posted on a daily basis. So I guess its natural that they would target them, just like they targeted Supernova a few years ago :(

[Merdoc]

i had one hell of a ratio at demonoid. and it had random downloads. i deeply miss it!

It will be back with a vengeance and just as much choice. The staff are all superb and knowledgable. In the meantime, have a 'fatty' and relax.:icon_pira

[VgForce]

maybe migrating server to U.S and run it as forum to go around the problem? or move server to india and make use of the corrupt government.

dam corporation. :devil2 they can go fuck themself, dam CEO get nearly 200 grands a years, is that not enough already.

maybe for you... have you been tried in "categorize" torrent?
oink-music
puretna- porn

or compare them here (http://www.zeropaid.com/links/bittorrent/)

[randomguy132]

Hmm, so it sounds like RevTT would be a somewhat comparable replacement for the kind of selection Demonoid had? If so, I suppose it's time to go invite hunting.

[zonks]

that was my hang out dang i even had invites i could have traded.

[djaehere]

i don't have an account. so i guess it would be down for me as well

i can hardly find tthe things on revolutiontt that i would find on demonoid.
their search function has to be the worst ive ever used on any torrent site.

[benecruz]

209.0.0.0 is Canada.

India?? are u stupid or just immature? India is a DEVELOPING country and high speed connection costs a lot... and if u ever get a chance reading a newspaper or listen to news, Indian Govt. is surprisingly very tough on piracy due to pressure from bollywood and other film industries. but the population is so huge that its very difficult to stop the black market... but ISP's can block or monitor P2P connection... i don't know if they do it or no..

[lordrohith]

When I was in India, there were people that would rent out pirated CDs of the latest Indian movies and the Gov't was cracking down on it pretty hard. Haven't been there in about 4 years though so I don't know what its like right now.

[infoseeker]

its getting too hard

Thanks so much to demonoid!!!
We're running out of countrys here. Netherlands and now Canada? What the fuck does theese guys have in their belts? Are lobbyists powerfull enough to give sanctions? Are we giving our civil rights away to goverments that are easily sold to corporations? I am in Norway and hate the EU, Nafta and any such display of unions. In the name of the trade they say! In the name of power I say!!!!!!

How could I coute it more than Sepultura. I wont. Refuse or resist!

Can't see it coming back tbh. Unless you know something I don't. :) I'll miss the site - just as well I got my priority downloads from there just in time. The vast variety of content was superb, shame it went while I only had a 1Mb connection. History is repeating itself (same happened to me when I was on 56k and AugioGalaxy went!)

[ltev2006]

anyone has any info what is the current situation with the demonoid? what are chances that its gonna comeback online, what are chances that its gonna ge totally closed, turned off forever?

[energybolt_00]

Should have stayed in Sweden :/

[HelenaP]

Great.
Another spree...

[wanchoo]

I don't think that Demonoid is down, I think that Demonoid is dead. To come back it shall now have to resurrect itself.
