Another one is close to biting the dust. Sci-Hub is out, Z-Lib got ran off like a dog and now IA is going to remove a host of books because these publishers just can’t stop being money-hungry bastards....

I have a large audible library I would like to backup and make available for other audiobook apps that use less battery. I’d like to maintain as much information and structure as possible. I saw a self hosted solution for audiobooks I might try to implement as well....

Basically I want to download a serie in a specific language and absolutely nowhere I can find it and recently I saw that the serie is available in the language I want in The Pirate’s Bay but I know the bad reputation of the site and I have never used it....

So, I’ve tried to get into torrentgalaxy to get some stuff and on the top of the website there’s this message:...

i know this is extremely unlikely to happen, but imagine if both mozilla and google decides to remove adblock extensions in every way, if that happens, would you still pirate?...

I’m on android and I’m wondering if there’s any way to skip the ads without getting premium? I don’t need the premium features necessarily but I hate the ads interrupting my practice. Anyone have any reliable leads? Thank you.

Just to clarify, I’m talking about thousands of torrents across hundreds of different directories.

Looking for a service for live sports, but payment methods are always limited.

I know torrenting sites are mostly inaccessible rn and mirrors are popping up, but is there a way rate the torrent? I downloaded a movie (public domain of c :) but I hated the fact it was recorded in the theater and it was not HD ripped. Bad experience lol. So, is there a way to particularly rate that torrent low. I mean, it had...

I’m feeling pretty down and pretty injured, I almost lost an eye the other day, so what torrents can I seed to make yarrr happy?

I’m trying to finish grabbing a show, but Sonarr says the final season is #3, while the rest of the internet (i.e. torrent sites) says that season is #5. It looks like the first 2 seasons were split up into 1/2 seasons when originally shown. So while Sonarr is looking for Season 3, it’s finding the first half of what it...

This is something I’m noticing in the ROM space, especially for non-retro titles like WiiU titles. The file sizes are often very massive, between 5 and 20 GB. Downloading from these places, especially the internet archive has a download speed of maybe 500 megabytes per hour. It’s quite slow compared to torrents, but when it...

So today Unity announced changes in how they are going to monetize their game engine, and it is, rightfully might I add, poorly recievedHere is how much youtuber Dani would have to pay unity if they consider his games to gain over $200k in revenue Dani’s hypothetical unity payments...

I am interested in how pirates on the internet (which i am not) would get there hands on the files to a game, just, for example, Baldur’s Gate 3, without torrenting? Now, I have heard tell of a place where these nefarious no-gooders would do this, for example gog-games.to. But, once they have acquired the file, what steps to...

I’m looking for a YR-DLP GUI for just music, or a good way to access music in general. I had a lidarr-on-steroids instance running but it kept disconnecting from deezer and i’d love to get that back up and running but it looks like it’s not supported any more. Yt-dlp looks like a decent enough plan B, but i’m open to...

I checked the wiki but it doesn’t have any content yet. Looking to stream Argentina vs Bolivia....

Hi there, do you know if there is a way to disable laugh tracks from sitcoms? I really would like to rewatch some shows like King of Queens but I can’t bear the constant laughing in the background. Cheers

Anybody know of a good source for video game OSTs ?

I have started encoding, but have now gotten to making videos where multiple video streams need to be combined from a bluray source, into one video file - Does anyone know any programs for this, or any in depth guides on Remuxing / etc?
