Top 10 most popular torrent sites<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
Most torrent sites provide pirated content. We discourage the download of such content. You should download only content that is legal in your country. <\/span><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Below are the world’s top 10 most popular torrent sites. These rankings are based on the number of visitors reported by the global site ranking system, Alexa. (Alexa rankings are the easiest way to judge if a torrent site is trustworthy.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  1. YTS<\/strong><\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n
  2. The Pirate Bay<\/strong><\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n
  3. 1337X<\/strong><\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n
  4. RARBG<\/strong><\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n
  5. Torrentz2 <\/strong><\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n
  6. EZTV<\/strong><\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n
  7. LIMETORRENTS<\/strong><\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n
  8. Zooqle<\/strong><\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n
  9. TORRENTDOWNLOADS<\/strong><\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n
  10. TORLOCK<\/strong><\/a><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

    IMPORTANT: Protect your privacy first!<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    Downloading torrents is perfectly legal, so long as the files you’re downloading aren’t protected under copyright. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Downloading copyrighted shows, movies and music is illegal<\/strong> and can attract significant penalties. All the major studios actively track the IP addresses of the computers illegally downloading their works. They then contact the associated internet service providers (ISPs) and get them to trace that IP address back to you. In many countries, ISPs are legally obligated to tell the studios who you are. And even in countries where they’re not<\/em> legally obligated, many ISPs will share your details anyway, simply because it’s easier.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    If you plan to download copyrighted material, you should definitely use a VPN so you can’t be tracked and prosecuted.<\/strong> A VPN (which stands for ‘virtual private server’) hides your IP address from prying eyes. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Some VPN services are free but, as with most things in life, you get what you pay for. Free VPNs are never as good as paid ones; either they’re not as fast or reliable, or they can be forced to share your details with the authorities. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Our favorite VPN is NordVPN<\/a><\/strong>. It’s fast and cheap, and – most importantly – it will keep your IP address hidden. Here’s how to use NordVPN to hide your IP address: <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    1) Open Nord.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    2) Click Quick Connect<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

    3) Wait for Nord to display PROTECTED<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
    TIP:<\/strong> If any of these torrent sites fail to load for you, it may be because it’s blocked in your country. To get around the block, use a VPN to hide your IP address, so your ISP can’t block the site for you. Our favorite VPN is NordVPN<\/a><\/strong>.<\/span><\/div>\n\n\n\n

    1. YTS<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

    YTS <\/a>is the new leader in torrents. (It recently stole the crown from The Pirate Bay, which had been the leader for many years.) YTS is a movie torrent site, providing a wide range of new release and classic movies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
    While downloading torrents is perfectly legal, downloading files protected under copyright is not. If you plan to download copyrighted material, you should definitely use a VPN, such as <\/strong>NordVPN<\/a><\/strong> so you can’t be tracked and prosecuted. <\/span><\/div>\n\n\n\n

    2. The Pirate Bay<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

    Founded in 2003, The Pirate Bay<\/strong><\/a> <\/a>has been one of the most trustworthy torrent sites for many years. It allows you to download different kinds of torrents, including TV shows, movies, games and music.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

    3. 1337X<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

    1337X<\/strong> <\/a>has a simple and well-organized layout. It allows you to easily download torrents by category, making it a great Pirate Bay alternative.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

    4. RARBG<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

    RARBG <\/strong><\/a>has a clean layout that allows you to search for content by category. It’s also well known for the speed at which new movie and TV show torrents are added. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

    5. Torrentz2 <\/h3>\n\n\n\n

    Torrentz2<\/strong> <\/a>is a torrent search engine (or ‘aggregator’). When you search for a title, it returns results from dozens of torrent sites, including YTS, The Pirate Bay and 1337X. It\u2019s currently the best torrent site for downloading music torrents. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
    While downloading torrents is perfectly legal, downloading files protected under copyright is not. If you plan to download copyrighted material, you should definitely use a VPN, such as <\/strong>NordVPN<\/a><\/strong> so you can’t be tracked and prosecuted.<\/span><\/div>\n\n\n\n

    6. EZTV<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

    As its name suggests, EZTV <\/strong><\/a>specializes in TV shows. It focuses mostly on American and British TV shows, but you’ll find plenty of international content there too. Note that EZTV’s URL changes often, and you can only access it if you have the latest one.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

    7. LIMETORRENTS<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

    LIMETORRENTS <\/strong><\/a>has a simple, well-organized layout. It’s great for beginners, because it makes downloading torrent easy and intuitive.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

    8. Zooqle<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

    Zooqle<\/strong> <\/a>allows you to download TV shows, movies and games. Although its layout isn’t very user-friendly, it has a lot of content, and often has titles the other torrent sites don’t.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
    While downloading torrents is perfectly legal, downloading files protected under copyright is not. If you plan to download copyrighted material, you should definitely use a VPN, such as <\/strong>NordVPN<\/a><\/strong> so you can’t be tracked and prosecuted.<\/span><\/div>\n\n\n\n

    9. TORRENTDOWNLOADS<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

    TORRENTDOWNLOADS <\/strong><\/a>didn’t make our top 10 list last year, but it’s become very popular lately. Definitely worth a try if you can’t find the titles you want on the other torrent sites, or you find them too hard to use.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

    10. TORLOCK<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

    Coming in at number 10 is TORLOCK<\/strong><\/a>. It describes itself as the \u201cNo Fakes Torrent Site\u201d, so you can expect all its torrents to be legit and high quality.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
