A wake for Lokitorrent
http://www.lokitorrent.com

I don't rememember when - two days ago

Another casualty in the War on Hollywood. Go in peace. [cue funeral music]

We will now allow a two-hour session for remembrance. Those who wish may relate their memories of the deceased and say their goodbyes, before the final interment.

Was this the one that attempted to challenge the lawsuit? If it was, I'm disappointed. I was hoping that would go in that site's favor.

I think I got my (non-working) Doom3 from Loki. That, and my (for the most part working) HL2.

They will be missed.

 
No wonder my torrents couldnt connect.....

Matthew, foolishness is disrespectful to the deceased. Torrents exist whether or not the webpage compiling them does.

If depends. If the torrent's tracker is based on the same server, then the torrent would cease to function.

yeah, though there are still plenty of places left. Isohunt indexes something like 100 trackers, and even if they're not huge ones like Loki or Suprnova, they add up. Plus, you have PirateBay left and there's a mirror with all the old Suprnova stuff. And apparently, the new version of Exeem is spyware free, it seems Exlite forced them into doing it in order to stay competitive, which is cool.

Its just a temporary thing. Someone will think of something even bigegr and better before long, thats how its always worked before with P2P.

 
Can´t say it affects me. I drink from another fountain.

Groovy.

are we talking about the same TorrentSpy here?

The one that lets you view info for any .torrents you might have lying around, like number of seeders/leechers, tracker info and that sort of thing?

naaa Loki had its own torrent server(s)... if they took down Lokitorrent's website, chances are they made sure to take down its tracker servers too

i never thought i'd say it, but i think i'm going to drastically cut back on my torrenting.  as in, stop completely, unless there's really something i need, and then i'll go for it, but with everything getting shut down, i'm worried about getting caught, and it'll be the second strike for me :-/

The only people being "robbed" are the MPAA's lawyers, who wouldn't have anything to do or money to pay themselves without suing random people who don't want to buy more than one $20 ticket for the same movie.
