Rules

Posts must be related to the discussion of digital piracy

  • The focus on file-sharing, articles and discussions about moral dilemmas with unauthorized distribution, legal developments, challenges, and other related topics are all welcome.
  • Avoid engaging in political discussions as they often lack meaningful contributions and tend to foster negativity.
  • Comics, memes and screenshots are acceptable, but should be original and of good quality. Images that are too blurry or have a lot of unintelligible text will be deleted.

Don't request invites, trade, sell, or self-promote

  • No pleading for invites to scene sites, private torrent trackers, DDL forums or other sites with closed registrations.
  • No asking for content downloads / uploads, accounts, activation keys, giveaways etc.
  • No trading or selling content, especially not for monetary services.
  • No self-promotion of your own work is allowed unless you expressly receive permission from the moderators.

Don't request or link to specific pirated titles, including DMs

  • Yes, you can link to the top level domain of a site (eg. https://archive.org/).
  • No, you may not link to a specific pirated title (eg. https://archive.org/specific-title).
  • No, you may not ask for a specific pirated title (eg. "Where can I download, find, or watch {insert title}")?
  • No, you may not ask to give or receive DMs.
  • Refrain from endorsing rule violation by inquiring or sharing the exact title someone is seeking when they make a request.

Don't submit low-quality posts, be entitled, or harass others

  • Posts that display a striking absence of coherence, decreased intellectual capacity, or demonstrate a nonchalant attitude will be liable for removal.
  • Steer clear from showcasing entitlement, as it is both counterproductive and unbecoming. We thrive by embracing the ethos of volunteerism, operating towards the betterment of others.
  • Displaying disrespectful actions, engaging in inappropriate behavior, or subjecting others to harassment will warrant an immediate permanent ban.

Don't post questions already answered. Read the wiki

  • Our Wiki has a wealth of information. By not reading it first, you decided that the time the moderators and members spent contributing to the wiki was beneath you.
  • Do a search on this subreddit, including the Megathread first, so as to not be repetitive.
  • If you're not willing to put in some initial effort to read and learn, don't expect any help. Users are not your personal search engine.

What do I do with this album?

I recently acquired a rare out-of-print CD - it's the self-published only album of a short-lived band that people are interested in because the lead singer has done other, better-known stuff. It had a very limited pressing and it's old enough that it's getting hard to find copies that are in good shape. Currently you can't stream or download it anywhere, legally or otherwise.

I'd like to get this album out there on the internet because I feel like otherwise it may be totally inaccessible sooner rather than later, but I haven't really uploaded stuff to share since back in the days of music-sharing communities on LiveJournal, and most of my downloading in recent years has involved ripping from legit sources. So I'm not really sure what would be the best way to share it. Put it on YouTube? Archive.org? (Not technically allowed, I know, but it doesn't seem strictly policed.) Upload it to Mega and link it... somewhere? What do you guys think?

Mobilism safety

Hi, I downloaded a couple of apps on Mobilism from reputable uploaders ( balatan , tryroom ) and had no problems at all. I wanted to get a pure GTA : San Andreas APK with no mods and stuff, I only found one topic by "Sevastian" ( Silver name ), I did download the APK ( but didn't run/install it ) and check it in VirusTotal and it came off clean but there are some detections if you go to Details tab and sketchy permissions, I don't know alot about Android Security so I don't want to take a risk, so is it safe to install or not ?

( I did some search and found an old post about Mobilism and in the comments someone said that VirusTotal searches for malware in it's database and sometimes can be wrong if a malware is not famous so I came here to ask just to be safe. )

How to initiate a torrent from my phone to PC?

Hi I am still fairly new to piracy but I have been hosting a plex server for about 2 years now at this point. I already know how to use different sites to obtain magnets and download using qbittorent and it works really well. I have heard of the application sonarr but when I tried it before I wasn't able to get it to work in a way I liked. I am curious however if there is any software that I can say search up something from my phone to initiate my PC to download a torrent file without having to log into my pc and manually searching something up. I know sonarr is often used to auto download new movies or tv shows when they become available but from as far as I can tell you still need to go to the PC to set what you want to be downloaded. Thanks for your time!

AirVPN is no longer available in my country. Cheap alternative and with port forwarding for torrent?

I was using it, but now in Italy it is no longer available. I saw the Megathread, it suggest to use Mullvad or ProtonVPN. But sadly the first one doesn't support port forwarding, the second one is not cheap.

Is there something cheap, good and fast as AirVPN?

Access denied to geo-locked streaming services while using VPN. Fix?

Hi, I'm using a VPN to gain access to geo-locked streaming services. My problem: the VPN prevents the site from "checking my actual location", thus I'm still unable to view the content.

Is there a work-around for this? Can I use an alternate method to somehow spoof an address for the desired location? Any tips/advice is much appreciated. I'm not at all tech savvy, so please provide as much detail in your advice as you can :)

How to download videos from an educational site that has maximum security? I’ve tried Google Chrome plugins, and analyzed the source code.

I’m pretty savvy with this kind of stuff, but I’m absolutely stumped. I’ve paid for the course and want to keep videos for future reference.

The site is Kwiga.com

DVD Backups

I've encountered a few DVDs in my collection that are scratched or otherwise unreadable (of course they are mostly my favorite movies), so I've begun a project to backup all of my DVDs (about 150-200). It is going slowly but well.

My question is for those DVDs that can't be read is there an easy source for a backup copy that is free? Or do I have to dig into the world of torrents, VPNs, etc?

How do I torrent fast without seeding

First off, I know this whole thing doesn't work without uploading

My problem is of a technical nature:

I have recently bought extremely quick wifi, like, I get 100MB/s (800 Megabit) regularly

But for some reason there's a problem with my upload so that the maximum upload speed is like 50 Kilobytes

And to my knowledge, low upload speeds impact how much you can download

Is there a way around this? I am willing to substitute the upload using my mobile data, if there's no other way, but I don't even know if it's possible to do those things using different networks, especially if everything has to go through a vpn

ETA: My wifi router is broken

The router has the low upload speed but high download speed

Alternative to doubledouble.top.

So I switched to doubledouble after free-mp3-download.net went down. Album downloading and embedded lyrics are good but it constantly stops working. Is there another site that lets you download from Tidal,qobuz...?

Looking for foreign torrent sites.

My favorite torrent poster (Spun17) isn't posting as much as before. Can't blame him/her, could require a lot of effort. I'm surprised there aren't more posters from Europe that post what he/she did, movies and TV series from Denmark, Belgium, Norway, etc. Does anyone know of any foreign torrent sites that might have torrents of European movies/TV?

CK3 Mods Not Loading Please Help

All my mods worked the last time I played this game(before Legacy of Persia). After I downloaded the newest version and updated all my mods they aren't loading into the game anymore. Please help I have tried everything, from using the Irony mod manager to using the default paradox launcher and manually editing the mod paths and descriptors. I have tried both the Fitrgirl release and the Dodi Repacks release but none of the methods online do anything.
