Pop Style Torrent Download Torrent

Update 2: Look like this is actually real. While the privacy policy and contact page may be a joke, the data is real.

BitTorrent (abbreviated to BT) is a communication protocol for peer-to-peer file sharing (P2P). Peers that want to download the file must first obtain a torrent file for it and connect to the specified tracker, which tells them from. Sub Pop Records releases tracks and videos via BitTorrent Inc. To distribute its 1000+ albums. Torrent Source For Free Download Quality Software. Publisher: Fielding SoundWorks Website: fieldingsoundworks Format: SYNTH PRESET (Massive 1.5.1+) Description: Cyberscapes consists of 150 patches, ranging from deep layers of the atmosphere, pulsing sequences, huge bass, fluffy pads, and more.

Update:~~As has been pointed out in the comments, this whole site seems to have been setup as a joke. A small link in the bottom left corner brings up a pop up stating it’s an experiment. Fooled us!~~

By now, just about everyone has torrentedsomething. But what the vast majority of peer-to-peer file sharers don’t realize is that their activities are very easy to keep tabs on…like the poor anonymous lad or lass from Malaysia whose downloads you see above. Church of Bootyism? I see what they did there.

That list — and scores of others, possibly including your own — are available for the whole world to see over at You Have Downloaded. So far, the site has tracked more than 52 million individual downloaders sharing around two million torrents. Apart from showing off misdeeds on a per-torrent or per-IP address basis, YHD also offers a pair of top 5 lists based on the activity it has monitored. Right now, activity is highest in the U.S. and China, and the top downloads are music and movie torrents.

Obviously, the fact that Suren Tur (producer at YHD) and company can do this is a bit worrying. After all, if they can do it to show you it’s possible, someone else could do it to find victims defendants for copyright infringement lawsuits.

So, how do you keep yourself off the radar? Using a VPN or proxy service is the way to go if you’re not willing to stop torrenting altogether. You can also try staying away from trackers that are heavily scrutinized, like The Pirate Bay, BitSnoop, and LimeTorrents. And bear in mind that if your internet service provider uses dynamic IP addresses, you’re probably going to see some files that were downloaded by that guy who lives down the street and always keeps his window blinds closed.

If your ISP uses static IP addresses, well…get a VPN or proxy running stat. Even if you stay within the law and only download legal torrents, there’s always a chance your IP makes it on to a list for the next round of lawsuits due to some error. Copyright holders have been known to misuse the system after all.

Thursday September 7th 2017 - qBittorrent v3.3.16 and 3.4.0beta2_20170709_cbfbae14090 release

Since it was a month since the last stable and v3.4.0 seems to be delayed just a bit, it was a good time to backport critical fixes and do another v3.3.x release.
Alongside v3.3.16 there is beta2 of v3.4.0. It contains various fixes for the things mentioned in the first beta plus a few new additions. See changelog. This beta works on Windows XP (32-bit) too. macOS packages are ready too.
Finally, the future stable version will be v4.0.0 not v3.4.0
v3.3.16 changelog:

BUGFIX: Better memory footprint when using libtorrent 1.1.x. The cache is turned off by default(0 (disabled) value in the settings). The value -1 (auto) makes it use 1/8 of your RAM. (sledgehammer999)
BUGFIX: Skip user input events when adding torrent. Closes #7327. (glassez)
BUGFIX: Avoid memory leak in the speed graph. (Chocobo1)
WEBUI: Fix validating wrong header field. X-Forwarded-Host is a foreign proxy setting, it isn't the same as qbt's local setting and thus it makes no sense to verify it. Closes #7311. (Chocobo1)
WINDOWS: Fix connection problems when a specific interface/ip is configured. (sledgehammer999)
WINDOWS: Disable skipping of loopback interfaces. This fixes the absence of VPN tunnel interfaces under Windows and works around the QTBUG-32349. Fixes #7291. (Evengard)

Thursday August 3rd 2017 - qBittorrent v3.3.15 release

qBittorrent v3.3.15 was released. Very minor release to fix a possibly annoying problem.3.4.0beta is being prepped and will be released this weekend. Stay tuned.

BUGFIX: Temporary subfolder wasn't being deleted. (glassez)

Thursday July 20th 2017 - qBittorrent v3.3.14 release

qBittorrent v3.3.14 was released.

This release is made mainly to fix the previous problematic fix for Cross-Site Request Forgery attacks via the webui.
It also contains another Webui fix for a DNS rebinding attack. For all WebUI users, if your qBittorrent server is assigned with a domain name, it is recommended to enter the domain name in GUI: Options -> WebUI tab -> Server domains textbox or in config: Preferences section -> WebUI/ServerDomains in order to defend against DNS rebinding attacks.
For macOS users: This is my first attempt to have a shortcut to Applications folder in the dmg. I hope that I didn't screw up the presentation.
Google has decided that qBittorrent is a persona non-grata. Read this reddit post for more info.
Either this weekend or the next one you will get a beta for v3.4.0. It has A LOT of new features so help in finding grave bugs. Keep checking back to see if it is posted.

Tuesday March 7th 2017 - NOTICE to tracker operators: User agent change

Starting from the next version (v3.3.12) qBittorrent will use the following user-agent format:

If D is zero it will be omitted. The 3rd dot(.) will be omitted in this case.
A, B and C will always be present.
E is a string and possible values of it are alpha, beta and rc. They might not appear in all lowercase. Also they might appear numbered eg alpha2.
If E is empty it will be omitted. This indicates a stable release.
There is no connection between D and E. One might be present even if the other isn't.To sum up and give an example, the user agent that v3.3.12 will use is qBittorrent/3.3.12.

Saturday February 13th 2016 - The forum is restored

As mentioned earlier, there were reports that the forums from a bunch of bittorrent related sites were hacked. As a result we switched off our forum to investigate. To the best of our knowledge we weren't hacked. We didn't discover any evidence of unauthorized entry. We highly suspect that the self-proclaimed 'hacker' was a fraud instead. Just so you know the passwords are saved hashed and salted in the database. It is very difficult to reverse this and obtain the real password. In any case, we reset all the passwords and switched on the forum. You already should have received an email about your new password.

Tuesday December 22nd 2015 - Forum compromise

It has come to our attention that the forum database containing user info might have been compromised by a third unauthorized party. We aren't able to tell if this is true from our logs. And we aren't sure if the hack was real. See more info in this article. If the database was indeed compromised it was probably through a bug of the forum software. We had installed version 2.0.11 of SMF, which is the latest stable. As a precaution we have taken down the forums. The passwords weren't saved as plaintext, but as salted hashes. It will make it very difficult for the hackers to recover the real passwords. However, we strongly recommend you to change your password to any other site on which you used the same password. We are sorry for the inconvenience.

Thursday November 27th 2014 - Ubuntu PPAs

As you may have noticed already our Ubuntu PPAs were broken for quite some time now. Chris Dumez, who maintained them, was unable to fix them. Today I managed to create new and working PPAs. Head over to the download page and find the new PPAs. You should remove the old ones to avoid conflicts.

Wednesday October 22nd 2014 - qBittorrent v3.1.11 release

qBittorrent v3.1.11 was released. I know I said that v3.1.10 would be the last of the v3.1.x series. However there were 2-3 regressions that warranted a new release. In the meantime, more bugfixes and features were committed by others. So v3.1.11 should be the last unless we find some serious issues with it.

Also some Windows 7 users experienced freezing of the GUI. We tracked it down to a specific commit in boost 1.56. So until boost fixes it, I am going to use boost 1.55 for Windows releases.

We really received a lot of feedback regarding v2.0.0 betas and release candidates and we would like to thank the brave people who tested it.

qBittorrent v2.0.0 changelog is available here.

December 2nd 2009 - qBittorrent v2.0.0rc4 and competition finalist

Just a short article to announce that qBittorrent v2.0.0rc4 was released. It is stable and the UI will not change. I am now simply waiting for late translation updates so that I can make a final release (probably on December 10th)

Another good news is that qBittorrent project is now a finalist in 'desktop applications' category in 'Les Etoiles Du Libre' Free Software competition. The winning projects will be selected on December 12th so let's keep our fingers crossed!

November 28th 2009 - qBittorrent v2.0.0rc2 and more search engine plugins

We have released today a second release candidate for qBittorrent v2.0.0. A lot of users decided to give v2.0.0 a try as soon as they saw the screenshots and we thank them for their useful feedback. Thanks to their effort, qBittorrent v2.0.0 final will be released sooner than expected.

We also recently moved our wiki to Sourceforge and we wrote a new documentation for qBittorrent v2.0. The documentation is complete already.

Another recent news was that Mininova engine disabled access to over a million torrent files when it partly shut down its website due to legal issues. After this news, TorrentFreak published a list of 10 alternatives to Mininova. We decided it would be useful to support these 10 search engines in qBittorrent. As a result, we are currently publishing new plugins on Plugins.qbittorrent.org. 4 new plugins are available at the time I'm writing this news while qBittorrent already supported 3 engines listed in the Top 10. This means that only 3 more plugins are missing to support the whole Top 10.

Development on v2.0.0 is going really well and we are hoping it will be ready in a month or so. qBittorrent v2.0 brings a lot of new features and UI changes. The list of changes is available here but to summarize it should be a very close equivalent to the official Bittorrent client: µTorrent, in all levels: features, UI, lightness.
