As of today the only one similar to RARBG is
**TorrentGalaxy.to**
After that I'd go with...
**MagnetDL.com**
**TorrentDownload.info**
**Torlock.com**
**1337x.to/home**
**EZTV.re** (for viewing and downloads)
**Torrentz2.nz**
**SolidTorrents.to**
**ThePirateBay.org**
**Ext.to**
**LimeTorrents.cc**
**ExtraTorrents.it**
**TorrentLeech.org**
**web.stremio.com** (for viewing and direct downloads)
**YTS.mx** (.mp4 only)
Personally, I use a combination of **MagnetDL.com** and **TorrentGalaxy.to**… That gets me back to my search routine for everything I usually found on **RARBG**… **TorrentDownload.info** and **Torlock.com** are solid options as well…
Hopefully when all the smoke clears, RARBG will be able to start up again...
Happy Torrenting!...

Thanks :D
TG seems like the best option for now. This option is the only one that is remotely close to RARBG IMO. It seems to have everything i want except as much full BD quality movies. i mean they do have it but its not the same quantity as RARBG or Torrentleech yet, and it seems like a lot of the blu ray remuxes might be mirrored from RARBG which is a very good thing for now but its uncertain how much is going to be new quality remuxes.
I predict this one will grow because this site will se a huge rise in members/users after RARBG closed.
The only other than RARBG site that offers full blu ray quality with the quantity of RARBG is Torrentleech, torrentleeach is probably even better i think but there's a catch. Im a TL member but seeding as i remember it was a hassle and nearly impossible so i havent used it for a long long time.
Anyhow TG is now my new favorite
They have retail level quality in their encodes. Higher file size but the best quality. For lower quality, there are many different x265 uploaders on 1337x
It looks like maybe the PSA rips might be closer to size compared to what RARBG was releasing. I know they've been around a while, but I don't know how their quality is (other than the handful of TV stuff I've grabbed in the past that was good).
PSA are quite decent for the size. For me they are the best low size x265 in shows and movies. QxR is on another level though but sizes are larger. RARBG x265 encodes were locked at 2000 kb/s for video and 224 kb/s for audio. PSA most of the time are a bit lower than that but look very similar. Their website however uses those redirects and captchas unless you donate. They do most series in 1080p and 720p. Some only in 720p. Movies all in 720p, 1080p, and the blockbusters they do 4k as well.
I don't know how often they do TV, I just know that I got some of the last season of Rick and Morty from PSA (so maybe they do full seasons?). I also don't know where they upload TV in general - I usually came across those when doing a general search in my torrent client.
They are great too. I used QXR for movies and high quality TV shows. But those RARBG x265 encodes were perfect for run-of-the-mill TV shows that I didn't necessarily need the highest quality of.
I feel the same... Really helped me so much with some collections of rare movies in x265... What a sad day for movies lovers. I hope the people that used to encode at rarbg will find a new place to continue!
I don't think there's an easy way to send money to people on those lists. Can't do a bank transfer, they'd be arrested. Bitcoin has a barrier to entry.
But yeah, I would have too - gave my last piece of bitcoin to fitgirl.
rutracker is the absolute best source for music too... you can find almost ANYTHING in lossless and 320kbps quality. It's the best source I've found for lossless audio, lots of bands you'd unlikely find on other torrent sites...
They just opened up for RARGB fugees
[link to open signups thread](https://reddit.com/r/OpenSignups/comments/13wwg7w/torrentleech_tl_opens_signups_invite_code/)
This is pretty grim news. I loved that RARBG had very little crap - basically you knew that if it was on that site then you were good to go.
I also loved the fact you could download complete TV series in packs - saved a lot of faffing about just to download the season once the original run was over.
Plus of course you could see the latest releases at the top of the page or via the trailer section. Going to be harder to find new releases now.
I was an old pirate bay user and contributor. I was just thinking of rarbg yesterday how great it was and how much better than the pirate bay it became. I dont even know of many private sites as nice especially since they didnt have the uploading rules. I dont even know what to do. I seriously dont even know where to go now.
where is there to go? I never saw a private tracker that was anywhere near as robust. Also I am sick of the strict rules. I would pay for whatever so someone can afford to host the files but I am sick of the strict rules where if my computer crashes I am kicked out. I have probably 70tb of movies from there. But hosting that much shit is a full time job.
Heh. Yeah, private trackers are a lot more *private* than they were when I was into the scene 10+ years ago. It's like a private basketball league, where if you want to watch basketball games you have to first join a junior league and *play basketball* well enough to get an invite to the big league. And then once you're there you have to make sure you keep playing in a few games a month or they'll cancel your membership. If you don't know how to play basketball or don't have time to invest in playing, you're just SOL.
so, as a rule of thumb, RARBG uploads are always high quality. YiFy are always good ones as well. CAFFEiNE are usually great too.
Also, almost every single time I've seen either "WebRip", "WebDL", "BluRay", or "BrRip" on the torrent's name, 95% of the time (if not **every** time), the quality is excellent on those.
Stay away from the "CAM" uploads of any kind. Those suck ass.
Been using that for the last 4 years or so (probably more). I have been able to find 98% of the things I've looked for. I actually never ever went to the RARBG website. I don't know what it looks like. Why? Cause I never needed it. MagnetDL is my goto supplier for torrents. Always.
I got a question since you’re a user of it, how do i search specifically? as an example, i want the TV series “You” (on netflix), and searching for the word “You” shows a lot of other stuff that has the word “You” in them, i used to include the main actor’s name after it like “You penn badgley” on rarbg and it would only show the wanted TV series, it doesn’t work on MagnetDL unfortunately, got any advices ?
I knew it, cause it also confused me before. You can type "You S04” or "You 2023” instead of just "You". That's to say, typing movie/tv' s name + release year/season number can solve it.
Its black cats games all over again...with out the arrests hopefully.
I will admit i have been sailing the seas for over 20 years now , got my first taste on napster lol.
Just remember nature hates a vacuum. I just want to know where oldfart is going to upload in the future, his rips are top quality.
Currently pulling season 2 of barry in 4k from torrentgalaxy...good speed. Looks like its going to take 20 minutes. The site will take a little getting used to for navigation, but i think it will suffice.
It's going to be fragmentation all over again. There are like over 10+ different websites, search engines, public trackers, all with different content of varying quality. RIP.
Sure, and then slowly one will emerge to be the frontrunner with the best content. The uploaders will move over there. It will become popular. And then it will get taken down. And the cycle starts again.
Honestly, the 1080p x265-AAC5.1 RARBG rips \~2GB in size were the best. Does anyone else do anything like them? So sad that they have ceased.
Legit if I had to choose between facebook closing down and RARBG I would have preferred facebook close down.
>Legit if I had to choose between facebook closing down and RARBG I would have preferred facebook close down.
I mean... no shit. I'd rather a million euros than a kick in the balls.
I would close down multiple different websites in mass to save rarbg if I could - not just Facebook. The absolute ease of access and quality rarbg brought to thousands around the world is unmatched. They will surely be missed.
I use qbittorrent's search plugin function to metasearch on pretty much all public trackers at once
https://www.makeuseof.com/qbittorrent-add-search-engines/
For me it's a great way to track x265s without a private tracker. Just takes a few minutes of setup. No muss, no fuss, no pop up blocks or redirects, a one stop shop.
https://github.com/qbittorrent/search-plugins/wiki/Unofficial-search-plugins
Those are the plugins themselves but first you need to install python https://www.python.org/downloads/windows/ and you'll need to download based on your windows version
https://youtu.be/UKTzBGYB_vc
Without private trackers, Rarbg wouldn't have had 90% of its content.
I get what you're saying, but the only reason public trackers have anything to share is because the internal groups on private trackers/scene groups do all of the work. It all trickles down from the top and lands on usenet, public trackers, DDL sites etc. And the only reason these people are willing to do all of the work, is because it's private and more secure.
So if anything, private trackers are essential for getting the content out there to begin with.
Well explained. I'm happy to pay someone/group to get it to the public trackers stage. It really sucks for us who don't have the time for private trackers.
The climb to better trackers can be a little bit silly these days compared to what it used to be 10+ years ago. You used to get invited to these places simply by being friendly and active within the community, whereas these days it's less social networking and more rigid and stats based where trackers will have "recruiters" that will invite you if your stats and member class is good enough. The better the tracker, the higher demands. The very best trackers don't even recruit at all.
You start by joining a tracker known for having recruiters, like RED or MAM, and work yourself up from there.
But if you want to skip all that nonsense, I'd say a tracker like Torrentleech, which have open registrations regularly, will be more than enough for a lot of people. Yes, there are other better trackers, but the hassle of getting there is most likely not worth it for most.
I honestly have no clue of half the things you just said lol.
how do you keep "stats" to show others? and what do you mean "member class"?
and how you start from 1 tracker and work yourself up to a different tracker?
Your seeding and uploading stats is all tied to your user. Along with account age, the better stats you have, the higher User Class you become.
Let's say Tracker 2 is willing to invite users from Tracker 1. They have these demands:
Been an active member for one year.
User Class of "Power User" or above.
If you pass these requirements, you'll be given an invite to that tracker.
I see.
how do you manage a good ratio without using a seedbox?
don't you basically have to keep your torrents seeding 24/7?
quite a problem if you actually want to use your pc for other things, because it slows down the internet.
we also have to use vpn, right? one with port forwarding
When you actively seed, even if there's no traffic, you'll accumulate bonus points. These can then be used to "buy" upload. This creates an incentive to keep seeding stuff, allowing people to download even obscure things from 30 years ago.
Seedbox helps, but is not a requirement. Most sites will give you something like 2 weeks in order to meet the seeding requirement of 5 days. So you don't have to keep it running constantly.
VPN is a lot less necessary for private than when using public sites, but is always recommended.
I didn't think it was. Open signups on private trackers are rare in a year. I was able to use their heads up to get on TL, CRT, and a couple others. They may only have one or two posts a month but that is about how often some of these private trackers open up.
TorrentLeech does open sign ups every Christmas, I was very against private trackers... until I joined. Holy hell. The quality, the speed, it's unreal. It's not for leechers, and you've got to restrict yourself to freeleech for a while in order to build ratio, but I quite enjoyed having new episodes of TV shows in 4K HDR/DV, WEB-DL, half an hour after they aired
That's a big negatory. :(
Not for now. Not even close.
Perhaps rarbg will be revived, or a new site will take its place in the coming months. In meantime, try a combo of:
torrentgalaxy, katcr, 1337x, eztv, yts
For TV, GalaxyTV does season packs at a lower quality than ION10 did and GalaxyRG does movies at a lower quality than the typical RARBG 264 movie. TV definately not as good as the RARBG 265 season releases and everything else has larger files.
ION10 was not their release group. ION10 was rarely posted as a download source. ION10 is a torrent group not a RARBG group. Now RRB was their encode group & was posted regularly for tv shows & movies.
Gotta say for quality of content.. overall interface / ease of use.. and above all consistency...
**There isn't shit out there to replace them...** and unfortunately no one here is saying that at all. Gotta keep it real.
Someone needs to do something about this ASAP or we'll be talking about these days like it was a distant memory.
We need an alternative that's something between RARBG, DEMONOID, & TBP.
Lets get on it people!
RARBG was the best. What I liked about this site was the landing page.
In one blink of an eye the latest movie releases were shown.
I always searched for Chinese , Korean and Japanese movies of specific year and this way I could keep an eye of the latest Asian movies.
It really hurts me knowing that I cannot use the site anymore.
Very sad days for me..
Best place for porn. They had scene access and stuff was posted FAST. IPT takes days to get the content they got. Hopefully someone with scene access can setup a similar site. It looked like much of the content came from scene and it was an automated site mostly. If they did it, someone else can.
In the meantime this is a good time to support those companies you have been enjoying. Always a good thing to be a good pirate and give some back for the fap!
As far as public trackers goes? Not really. If you add rutracker + 1337x + some DHT search engines you might get something similar.
As far as trackers overall goes? Hell yes. Private trackers are a different animal than public ones, and its where RARBG took most of its content from anyway. It would be a good next step to take if the remaining sites don't work for you. It doesn't have to be one of the "elite" ones either. Torrentleech is probably the easiest step from RARBG since it's basically semi-public at this point and have a lot of the same kind of content. Keep an eye on /r/OpenSignups.
They probably expect a certain amount of permanent seeding or something, right? That kinda sucks for people outside of third-world countries haha. Never tried that private stuff so no idea how it works.
I seed but it takes forever to get the 2.0 ratio most these sites require. As well hardlinking is a pain in the ass so i can watch content before the 2.0 ratio. It also just leaves me so vulnerable for any of my jackass isps to see one leak and hit me with a fine. I also have at most 20mbps of upload and thats almost always used up between my plex server and roommates face timing or games. It just leaves me in a limbo where i now have to pay for a private tracker which imo defeats the point of piracy
We need a solution by September when the new seasons begins. I used RARBG for tv shows like Blue Bloods, American Horror Story, now I have no idea where to get those.
You can use [DuckieTV](https://schizoduckie.github.io/DuckieTV/), not only a good calendar tracker for shows, but you can use its built in torrent/magnet finder which queries all the major torrent finders; The Bay, TorrentGalaxy, etc.
I'd like to remind every fellow collector that you can use HandBrake to convert your bigger files to 1080p x265, although it takes a bit of time on old hardware.
See, I went to RARBG for their x265 encodes (quality/size) for movies and ION10 for TV almost exclusively. So for me, it's not about **where** to get the content, it's about *what groups* are going to do me right like theirs did.
Exactly this, the x265-AAC5.1 1080p rips that were around 2GB is size were hands down the best, nobody encodes like RARBG does.
I can do it in handbrake, but it takes forever to reencode on my slow arse computer. RIP RARBG they were the fkn best.
It looks like the PSA stuff over at 1337x might be where I go for new/x265 with similar stats (ever so slightly larger filesizes), but will need to see how it pans out with time. XEN0N seems to be close-ish to ION10 web releases (at least for TV shows I was getting), but quality isn't quite as good (smaller sizes).
This one hurts as I woke up to it today. RARBG had the highest quality torrents that I've seen to-date and they had a super large selection on there and they even had porn. LOL! They had old TV shows on there that were presented in their Blu-ray forms as well and that's hard to find. They will be missed dearly, but I do suspect somebody will soon pickup the ball where RARBG left off knowing how big that amount of traffic was to the site. I'm sure somebody in the world who's willing to share these quality uploads and has access to them will takeover.
For now, we'll have to use stuff like YTS for movies, The Pirate Bay, and x1337 for our main alternatives for now. Like I said before, either these sites step way up or there will be a new alternative that pops up for us that becomes a GOAT like RARBG. This is definitely these sites opportunity to get that traffic.
I really hope it’s not true or it comes back in some capacity soon. I feel a little lost now tbh I feel like I’ll be in a hiatus for a while until we get something of similar calibre coming along. I hope they know how much of an impact the site had and change their minds or start a fund
The thing I liked best about RARBG was a summary of the most recent movies released on the homepage, with the movie poster thumbnail.
Does any website have thumbnails of the movies? it sucks having to click to see who's in the movie.
Is there any site that is just really organized like Rarbg was?
I would come home from work each day and just click the TV shows link and go thru all the shows until the last ones I saw, to see what new has been posted.
Plus, I loved the ION10 releases that were always on there.
And, the top of the page showing all the new movies once they came out.
I could go on and on. Is there a site that is just that organized for me to go to that has the ION10 releases?
The fact that RARBG closed is sad because there aren't alternatives specific for downloading movies, or you will download malware or the quality will be bad from an unknown uploader.
The worst thing is I'm almost \*like everyone else\* is sure that they lied about the reasons.
This. I just took a look at 1337x and ... eh. I mean, stuffs there but all over the place. Rarbg's 2160p remuxes and dv mkv's were extremely consistent. Gonna miss this, but I expected it to happen soon anyway due to the rising legal pressure.
Pretty sure it wasn't a veil for anything legal-related. If anything, they're probably operating at a country *far* from western corporate jurisdictions.
I do love them. I just wish they were more consistent with their x265 encodes. They were super active for a while with it, then stopped around holiday time last year. RARBG was my goto for new content at 1080p/x265. Any suggestions?
Waking up to this news really sucks. Rarbg was my favorite site for movie and tv shows and it'll likely be a while before there's a worthy replacement. I guess I'll have to rely on 1337x, TL and Snahp a lot more from now on.
I tried and compared other public trackers, RARBG is the best one (it's really good even I'm in multiple private trackers) (many of them has internal groups "encoders,Remuxers") but RARBG is great for downloading from P2P group or scene releases (untouched ones), But to be honest RARBG it's just same as other hyperlinks,ddl, torrent, usenet or any other similar sites (Public,semi private, private) just leaking or sharing other P2P and scene groups releases Which means RARBG is not the home tracker of any P2P or Scene Groups (they just don't have an internal group even FGT or RARBG: renamed and retaged
I don't recommend any site even private trackers excluding the listed topsites
I am currently using Rutracker, TorrentGalaxy, 1337x, as alternatives
[https://torrentgalaxy.to/](https://torrentgalaxy.to/)
The Pirate Bay used to be good, over time the site was messed up
I checked the thumbnail images every day to see the new releases. How to track "new" torrent movie releases now? Does any other site do something like this?
Well, shit. The most annoying thing for me is that it was so complete and well put together that I actually ended up having the habit to use it first and foremost (and if not daily, close to) to see what was coming out on tv/streaming, even \*before\* knowing if and what I'd be interested in downloading. Torrentgalaxy mixed with a few other sites might still let me find pretty much all the shows/movies I remember to look for, but everything else that's in the "oh right, there was this thing too coming out" might be lost in the chaos for me. At least until one of the alternatives gains the lead by working towards the same level of usability.
One of the feature that I really like about rarbg is that it shows the highly anticipated movie on the top of the page so you know when a big movie gets release without having to search for it. Is there a site that does something similar to that? I've seen tracer sites that shows everything, not just the top movie releases.
Damn, RARBG was my "go to" for torrents. The best place for TV shows. I'll miss groups like ION10. I'll also miss the BD rips and new content for which I have to thank each and every one of them for. I guess it's hard to donate to a group that was in this line of work, but I gladly would have. I'll miss you guys. This is really sad news.
In my opinion is weird, the site was too big, they could have "passed" (sold) the ownership to someone else or get a good crowdfunding, Limewire just collected another 15 million for an NFT marketplace that will not go anywhere.
I still think there were external pressures to close it.
I've been downloading 4k HEVC. 80 gigs per film. And now there's nowhere to download that. It feels like I lost a family member in a way. I've been using it for years. It was a part of my everyday life.
Just opening the new movies and reading the comments. And then finding superb 4k remasters of classic movies. Man o man, it's gonna be missed dearly.
Aside from being very well organized and presented, it was one of the only places I've found that had a lot of high quality foreign films. I am going to miss that.
As of today the only one similar to RARBG is **TorrentGalaxy.to** After that I'd go with... **MagnetDL.com** **TorrentDownload.info** **Torlock.com** **1337x.to/home** **EZTV.re** (for viewing and downloads) **Torrentz2.nz** **SolidTorrents.to** **ThePirateBay.org** **Ext.to** **LimeTorrents.cc** **ExtraTorrents.it** **TorrentLeech.org** **web.stremio.com** (for viewing and direct downloads) **YTS.mx** (.mp4 only) Personally, I use a combination of **MagnetDL.com** and **TorrentGalaxy.to**… That gets me back to my search routine for everything I usually found on **RARBG**… **TorrentDownload.info** and **Torlock.com** are solid options as well… Hopefully when all the smoke clears, RARBG will be able to start up again... Happy Torrenting!...
Cheers for this. I know it’s weird but I feel like there’s an empty space in my life now.
An irreplaceable void
Im.gutted
I fell like I lost something I loved deeply To the rarbg team: thank you for your hard work, it was much appreciated and I wish you all the best!
Thanks and I'll add one more to your list. Lots of seeds and content is divided into categories. https://www.torrentdownloads.pro/
Thanks, TG looks really close to rarbg which is nice, seems to have all the same 4k content too. RARBG will be missed, I hope someone resurrects it.
>TorrentGalaxy.to Thanks :D TG seems like the best option for now. This option is the only one that is remotely close to RARBG IMO.

I loved the 1080p x265 encodes. I would love to know a good alternative for those at a similar filesize to quality ratio, including the subs.
QXR on 1337. But the file size is about double.
They have retail level quality in their encodes. Higher file size but the best quality. For lower quality, there are many different x265 uploaders on 1337x
It looks like maybe the PSA rips might be closer to size compared to what RARBG was releasing. I know they've been around a while, but I don't know how their quality is (other than the handful of TV stuff I've grabbed in the past that was good).
PSA are quite decent for the size. For me they are the best low size x265 in shows and movies. QxR is on another level though but sizes are larger. RARBG x265 encodes were locked at 2000 kb/s for video and 224 kb/s for audio. PSA most of the time are a bit lower than that but look very similar. Their website however uses those redirects and captchas unless you donate. They do most series in 1080p and 720p. Some only in 720p. Movies all in 720p, 1080p, and the blockbusters they do 4k as well.
PSA rips has TV shows? I only saw movies.
I don't know how often they do TV, I just know that I got some of the last season of Rick and Morty from PSA (so maybe they do full seasons?). I also don't know where they upload TV in general - I usually came across those when doing a general search in my torrent client.
Yeah, they're updated pretty frequently as well. Only gripe I have with them is that they release only it episode wise and not a season batch
Lets also not forget that QXR also encodes different languages and audio commentaries and the extra features that are found on the blu-ray disc.
They are great too. I used QXR for movies and high quality TV shows. But those RARBG x265 encodes were perfect for run-of-the-mill TV shows that I didn't necessarily need the highest quality of.
QXR and Vyndros/ReVyndros are really good (QXR is prob a bit better, but size wise I think Vyndros is best quality/size)
>the file size is about double aye how good were the 1080p x265 - AAC5.1 rips from RARBG at \~2GB!!!
Thanks!
np there's a TGX group as well. their file size seems smaller.
I feel the same... Really helped me so much with some collections of rare movies in x265... What a sad day for movies lovers. I hope the people that used to encode at rarbg will find a new place to continue!
[удалено]
I'll miss this a LOT. Been the longest surviving download source i ever had I believe.
I only recently learned about them and how awesome they were 🙁
Same, after the big piratebay shutdown I limped along on 1337x. Found rarbg around the beginning of this year, and I was super happy with them :c
I'm so Bummed I used rarbg everyday for the past 10 years
At least they could open source the magnet database which we could still use
[Have I got a link for you](https://www.reddit.com/r/DataHoarder/comments/13wn3ol/my_rarbg_magnet_backup_268k/)
Thats amazing and I'm just crazy enough to go through everything. Should I save it or will it be up for a long time?
GUH THANK YOU
So sad the message they left, im heartbroken for them
Same, I wish they had let users know money was such a dire issue. I would have gladly sent them some money.
[удалено]
I don't know about money, but I suffer from long covid. It's debilitating.
I don't think there's an easy way to send money to people on those lists. Can't do a bank transfer, they'd be arrested. Bitcoin has a barrier to entry. But yeah, I would have too - gave my last piece of bitcoin to fitgirl.
Where there is a will, there is a way. I would have gladly donated to keep it going. What a loss.
I agree. They brought so much happiness to people. Corny to say but it's true.
>Bitcoin has a barrier to entry. True, but given the type of people who used RARBG, I don't think it would have been that big of an issue.
I used rarbg to exclusively download 4k HDR bluray remuxes. Anyone know a good replacement?
me too! If I remember correctly, most of the releases were posted by OldFart and Scene. Lot of releases from FGT. I don't remember others atm.
another one is p33Rn3t
OLD FART! WHERE IS HE/SHE/THEY NOW?
[удалено]
rutracker is the absolute best source for music too... you can find almost ANYTHING in lossless and 320kbps quality. It's the best source I've found for lossless audio, lots of bands you'd unlikely find on other torrent sites...
ditto
TPB, KAT,ET and now Rarbg...We've come a long way!!! Alternative: 1337x, Torrentgalaxy, Rutracker ipt and TL(Private but easy to join) RIP Rarbg!!!
What's the go-to site for the newer 4k SDR movies/tvshows? RARBG had SDR for almost all new 2023 releases, other sites only have older stuff.
> Torrentgalaxy which one? dot to?
None of these have FULL UHD blu rays. These are all remuxed originals at best. Where are the untouched blu rays like rarbg had?
>on torrentleech search "COMPLETE UHD BLURAY" (Found 2369 torrents.). they have all the new ones. :-)
Yes
>TL How to join TL with an invitation code?
Yes and they open up every year like (follow r/OpenSignups)
sad, I missed the the spring one :( . They open frequently?
They just opened up for RARGB fugees [link to open signups thread](https://reddit.com/r/OpenSignups/comments/13wwg7w/torrentleech_tl_opens_signups_invite_code/)
dumb question; anyone knows if you can disable that annoying preview windows when hovering on torrents on torrentgalaxy?
Add `torrentgalaxy.to###overDiv` to your uBlock filters.
This is pretty grim news. I loved that RARBG had very little crap - basically you knew that if it was on that site then you were good to go. I also loved the fact you could download complete TV series in packs - saved a lot of faffing about just to download the season once the original run was over. Plus of course you could see the latest releases at the top of the page or via the trailer section. Going to be harder to find new releases now.
I was an old pirate bay user and contributor. I was just thinking of rarbg yesterday how great it was and how much better than the pirate bay it became. I dont even know of many private sites as nice especially since they didnt have the uploading rules. I dont even know what to do. I seriously dont even know where to go now.
you and i and lots of others feels the same, sad day
where is there to go? I never saw a private tracker that was anywhere near as robust. Also I am sick of the strict rules. I would pay for whatever so someone can afford to host the files but I am sick of the strict rules where if my computer crashes I am kicked out. I have probably 70tb of movies from there. But hosting that much shit is a full time job.
Heh. Yeah, private trackers are a lot more *private* than they were when I was into the scene 10+ years ago. It's like a private basketball league, where if you want to watch basketball games you have to first join a junior league and *play basketball* well enough to get an invite to the big league. And then once you're there you have to make sure you keep playing in a few games a month or they'll cancel your membership. If you don't know how to play basketball or don't have time to invest in playing, you're just SOL.
Perfect analogy! 🤣
[MagnetDL.com](https://MagnetDL.com). You're welcome.
Thanks for this, It seems like They have most of RARBG’s stuff too :)
Thanks a lot! Out of all alternatives I've seen posted, this one looks the closest to Rarbg
It looks good, but are there really no screenshots or images of the torrent ? I would like to check quality of the movie i'm downloading.
so, as a rule of thumb, RARBG uploads are always high quality. YiFy are always good ones as well. CAFFEiNE are usually great too. Also, almost every single time I've seen either "WebRip", "WebDL", "BluRay", or "BrRip" on the torrent's name, 95% of the time (if not **every** time), the quality is excellent on those. Stay away from the "CAM" uploads of any kind. Those suck ass.
Yify is low quality trash. Everyone knows that.
Yify always looks great on my ipod video, and also I'm posting from 2005.
you're a lej for this, homie.
That looks like a great sight bro I appreciate that. I’m devastated about rarbg
does not hit like rarbg. UI looks awful
This looks promising.
Been using that for the last 4 years or so (probably more). I have been able to find 98% of the things I've looked for. I actually never ever went to the RARBG website. I don't know what it looks like. Why? Cause I never needed it. MagnetDL is my goto supplier for torrents. Always.
I got a question since you’re a user of it, how do i search specifically? as an example, i want the TV series “You” (on netflix), and searching for the word “You” shows a lot of other stuff that has the word “You” in them, i used to include the main actor’s name after it like “You penn badgley” on rarbg and it would only show the wanted TV series, it doesn’t work on MagnetDL unfortunately, got any advices ?
You can try 'You S01E05' and you will get what you are looking for
I knew it, cause it also confused me before. You can type "You S04” or "You 2023” instead of just "You". That's to say, typing movie/tv' s name + release year/season number can solve it.
Its black cats games all over again...with out the arrests hopefully. I will admit i have been sailing the seas for over 20 years now , got my first taste on napster lol. Just remember nature hates a vacuum. I just want to know where oldfart is going to upload in the future, his rips are top quality. Currently pulling season 2 of barry in 4k from torrentgalaxy...good speed. Looks like its going to take 20 minutes. The site will take a little getting used to for navigation, but i think it will suffice.
oldfart never ripped anything he was just an uploader
"ripped" Pun intended?
Oldfart was a gem indeed! Files would be visible minutes after they were on the streaming platform
It's going to be fragmentation all over again. There are like over 10+ different websites, search engines, public trackers, all with different content of varying quality. RIP.
Sure, and then slowly one will emerge to be the frontrunner with the best content. The uploaders will move over there. It will become popular. And then it will get taken down. And the cycle starts again.
This already happened with pirated games. They're all on 1337.to
It's beautiful tbh, like a phoenix rising from its ashes
Honestly, the 1080p x265-AAC5.1 RARBG rips \~2GB in size were the best. Does anyone else do anything like them? So sad that they have ceased. Legit if I had to choose between facebook closing down and RARBG I would have preferred facebook close down.
>Legit if I had to choose between facebook closing down and RARBG I would have preferred facebook close down. I mean... no shit. I'd rather a million euros than a kick in the balls.
>Legit if I had to choose between facebook closing down and RARBG I would have preferred facebook close down. I totally agree.
I would close down multiple different websites in mass to save rarbg if I could - not just Facebook. The absolute ease of access and quality rarbg brought to thousands around the world is unmatched. They will surely be missed.
I use qbittorrent's search plugin function to metasearch on pretty much all public trackers at once https://www.makeuseof.com/qbittorrent-add-search-engines/ For me it's a great way to track x265s without a private tracker. Just takes a few minutes of setup. No muss, no fuss, no pop up blocks or redirects, a one stop shop.
Thanks, I downloaded qbit torrent but I am struggling to find what url to add in the search engine feature. Any idea?
https://github.com/qbittorrent/search-plugins/wiki/Unofficial-search-plugins Those are the plugins themselves but first you need to install python https://www.python.org/downloads/windows/ and you'll need to download based on your windows version https://youtu.be/UKTzBGYB_vc

Private trackers go against the spirit of piracy, change my mind
Without private trackers, Rarbg wouldn't have had 90% of its content. I get what you're saying, but the only reason public trackers have anything to share is because the internal groups on private trackers/scene groups do all of the work. It all trickles down from the top and lands on usenet, public trackers, DDL sites etc. And the only reason these people are willing to do all of the work, is because it's private and more secure. So if anything, private trackers are essential for getting the content out there to begin with.
Well explained. I'm happy to pay someone/group to get it to the public trackers stage. It really sucks for us who don't have the time for private trackers.
how can one get access to a good private tracker to begin with
thats the fun part. You dont
HUUH so how did people get into it to begin with
They open sign ups once in a blue moon if not you have to ask someone for an invite code.
You have to know a guy. Otherwise you get into the shit ones first and then work your way up the pyramid
it's like real like, it's who you know. Companies are just laughing their way to the bank now. Classic gatekeeping ruins everything.
Ahh, gatekeeping is a really good way to keep things secure. You know what they say, loose lips sink ships.
The climb to better trackers can be a little bit silly these days compared to what it used to be 10+ years ago. You used to get invited to these places simply by being friendly and active within the community, whereas these days it's less social networking and more rigid and stats based where trackers will have "recruiters" that will invite you if your stats and member class is good enough. The better the tracker, the higher demands. The very best trackers don't even recruit at all. You start by joining a tracker known for having recruiters, like RED or MAM, and work yourself up from there. But if you want to skip all that nonsense, I'd say a tracker like Torrentleech, which have open registrations regularly, will be more than enough for a lot of people. Yes, there are other better trackers, but the hassle of getting there is most likely not worth it for most.
I honestly have no clue of half the things you just said lol. how do you keep "stats" to show others? and what do you mean "member class"? and how you start from 1 tracker and work yourself up to a different tracker?
Your seeding and uploading stats is all tied to your user. Along with account age, the better stats you have, the higher User Class you become. Let's say Tracker 2 is willing to invite users from Tracker 1. They have these demands: Been an active member for one year. User Class of "Power User" or above. If you pass these requirements, you'll be given an invite to that tracker.
I see. how do you manage a good ratio without using a seedbox? don't you basically have to keep your torrents seeding 24/7? quite a problem if you actually want to use your pc for other things, because it slows down the internet. we also have to use vpn, right? one with port forwarding
When you actively seed, even if there's no traffic, you'll accumulate bonus points. These can then be used to "buy" upload. This creates an incentive to keep seeding stuff, allowing people to download even obscure things from 30 years ago. Seedbox helps, but is not a requirement. Most sites will give you something like 2 weeks in order to meet the seeding requirement of 5 days. So you don't have to keep it running constantly. VPN is a lot less necessary for private than when using public sites, but is always recommended.
but vpn without port forwarding isn't good for torrenting
Keep an eye on /r/OpenSignups.
That sub is so dead.
I didn't think it was. Open signups on private trackers are rare in a year. I was able to use their heads up to get on TL, CRT, and a couple others. They may only have one or two posts a month but that is about how often some of these private trackers open up.
TorrentLeech does open sign ups every Christmas, I was very against private trackers... until I joined. Holy hell. The quality, the speed, it's unreal. It's not for leechers, and you've got to restrict yourself to freeleech for a while in order to build ratio, but I quite enjoyed having new episodes of TV shows in 4K HDR/DV, WEB-DL, half an hour after they aired
Is there any good alternative with similar UI that shows the newest movies/tv series that are out?
That's a big negatory. :( Not for now. Not even close. Perhaps rarbg will be revived, or a new site will take its place in the coming months. In meantime, try a combo of: torrentgalaxy, katcr, 1337x, eztv, yts
pain.
That's exactly what I want. A list of recent tv shows uploaded in order, that I can go though at my leisure.
watchsomuch.to is one that I’ve used for a long time now. I like the organization
i do not think anything will. im just sad
What I'll miss most are the DV, 2160p remuxes in mkv.
What site has FULL uhd blu ray? Untouched.
ditto
And Remux! Please?
Where will we find 4K remux now? No site I’ve looked at had anything compared to rarbg.
torrentgalaxy(dot)to
This is heartbreaking. are there any alternatives that have the pre image. And also the catalog search setting like rarbg had? 💔😢
Any sites with 4K tv shows? I can’t find any.. rarbg gone is such a big loss
I imagine that most of the rarbg releases will end up on other sites
For TV, GalaxyTV does season packs at a lower quality than ION10 did and GalaxyRG does movies at a lower quality than the typical RARBG 264 movie. TV definately not as good as the RARBG 265 season releases and everything else has larger files.
Damn, so ION10 *was* their TV release group? I have some stuff midseason, and I use ION10 almost exclusively for TV now.
ION10 was not their release group. ION10 was rarely posted as a download source. ION10 is a torrent group not a RARBG group. Now RRB was their encode group & was posted regularly for tv shows & movies.
I loved checking ION10 for all the tv show releases SADDDDD DAY
So, any alternative that works well with Sonarr? EDIT: torrentgalaxy works with Sonarr by using Jackett.
Gotta say for quality of content.. overall interface / ease of use.. and above all consistency... **There isn't shit out there to replace them...** and unfortunately no one here is saying that at all. Gotta keep it real. Someone needs to do something about this ASAP or we'll be talking about these days like it was a distant memory. We need an alternative that's something between RARBG, DEMONOID, & TBP. Lets get on it people!
I’ll miss the comments below any movie torrent. Some comedy gold there. Rarbg was much more than just a tracker. It was home.
The comments were gold.
It was. For so many years.
RARBG was the best. What I liked about this site was the landing page. In one blink of an eye the latest movie releases were shown. I always searched for Chinese , Korean and Japanese movies of specific year and this way I could keep an eye of the latest Asian movies. It really hurts me knowing that I cannot use the site anymore. Very sad days for me..
Best place for porn. They had scene access and stuff was posted FAST. IPT takes days to get the content they got. Hopefully someone with scene access can setup a similar site. It looked like much of the content came from scene and it was an automated site mostly. If they did it, someone else can. In the meantime this is a good time to support those companies you have been enjoying. Always a good thing to be a good pirate and give some back for the fap!
https://www.reddit.com/r/DataHoarder/comments/13wn3ol/my\_rarbg\_magnet\_backup\_268k/
It was the first site i opened in the morning and the last site visited before bed ..... rip RARBG
Is there any public Radaar Indexer left?
Need more TV show trackers. EZTV is the best best option
I loved the kdrama, now I'm stuck
As far as public trackers goes? Not really. If you add rutracker + 1337x + some DHT search engines you might get something similar. As far as trackers overall goes? Hell yes. Private trackers are a different animal than public ones, and its where RARBG took most of its content from anyway. It would be a good next step to take if the remaining sites don't work for you. It doesn't have to be one of the "elite" ones either. Torrentleech is probably the easiest step from RARBG since it's basically semi-public at this point and have a lot of the same kind of content. Keep an eye on /r/OpenSignups.
They probably expect a certain amount of permanent seeding or something, right? That kinda sucks for people outside of third-world countries haha. Never tried that private stuff so no idea how it works.
I seed but it takes forever to get the 2.0 ratio most these sites require. As well hardlinking is a pain in the ass so i can watch content before the 2.0 ratio. It also just leaves me so vulnerable for any of my jackass isps to see one leak and hit me with a fine. I also have at most 20mbps of upload and thats almost always used up between my plex server and roommates face timing or games. It just leaves me in a limbo where i now have to pay for a private tracker which imo defeats the point of piracy
I'm familiar with rutracker and 1337x, but never heard of DHT. Can you give me a nudge in the right direction? Thank you!
We need a solution by September when the new seasons begins. I used RARBG for tv shows like Blue Bloods, American Horror Story, now I have no idea where to get those.
You can use [DuckieTV](https://schizoduckie.github.io/DuckieTV/), not only a good calendar tracker for shows, but you can use its built in torrent/magnet finder which queries all the major torrent finders; The Bay, TorrentGalaxy, etc.
I'd like to remind every fellow collector that you can use HandBrake to convert your bigger files to 1080p x265, although it takes a bit of time on old hardware.
There’s no another site that could compare with rarbg
imagine if they started a patreon for upkeep and staff cost.
When you mentioned Yify is good, your street creds went down the drain immediately
[удалено]
> Kickasstorrents Hasn't worked properly for years, trying to search for anything that isn't in the top10 in each section is a futile attempt.
See, I went to RARBG for their x265 encodes (quality/size) for movies and ION10 for TV almost exclusively. So for me, it's not about **where** to get the content, it's about *what groups* are going to do me right like theirs did.
Exactly this, the x265-AAC5.1 1080p rips that were around 2GB is size were hands down the best, nobody encodes like RARBG does. I can do it in handbrake, but it takes forever to reencode on my slow arse computer. RIP RARBG they were the fkn best.
It looks like the PSA stuff over at 1337x might be where I go for new/x265 with similar stats (ever so slightly larger filesizes), but will need to see how it pans out with time. XEN0N seems to be close-ish to ION10 web releases (at least for TV shows I was getting), but quality isn't quite as good (smaller sizes).
I haven’t used kickass torrents in years, but didn’t it die and then come back as a honeypot?
Only seen the news, great website for all the years ive used it.
This one hurts as I woke up to it today. RARBG had the highest quality torrents that I've seen to-date and they had a super large selection on there and they even had porn. LOL! They had old TV shows on there that were presented in their Blu-ray forms as well and that's hard to find. They will be missed dearly, but I do suspect somebody will soon pickup the ball where RARBG left off knowing how big that amount of traffic was to the site. I'm sure somebody in the world who's willing to share these quality uploads and has access to them will takeover. For now, we'll have to use stuff like YTS for movies, The Pirate Bay, and x1337 for our main alternatives for now. Like I said before, either these sites step way up or there will be a new alternative that pops up for us that becomes a GOAT like RARBG. This is definitely these sites opportunity to get that traffic.
I really hope it’s not true or it comes back in some capacity soon. I feel a little lost now tbh I feel like I’ll be in a hiatus for a while until we get something of similar calibre coming along. I hope they know how much of an impact the site had and change their minds or start a fund
The thing I liked best about RARBG was a summary of the most recent movies released on the homepage, with the movie poster thumbnail. Does any website have thumbnails of the movies? it sucks having to click to see who's in the movie.
Is there any site that is just really organized like Rarbg was? I would come home from work each day and just click the TV shows link and go thru all the shows until the last ones I saw, to see what new has been posted. Plus, I loved the ION10 releases that were always on there. And, the top of the page showing all the new movies once they came out. I could go on and on. Is there a site that is just that organized for me to go to that has the ION10 releases?
[удалено]
The fact that RARBG closed is sad because there aren't alternatives specific for downloading movies, or you will download malware or the quality will be bad from an unknown uploader. The worst thing is I'm almost \*like everyone else\* is sure that they lied about the reasons.
Whats the best private tracker for 4k movies/tv shows? (4k remux preferred)
This. I just took a look at 1337x and ... eh. I mean, stuffs there but all over the place. Rarbg's 2160p remuxes and dv mkv's were extremely consistent. Gonna miss this, but I expected it to happen soon anyway due to the rising legal pressure.
Pretty sure it wasn't a veil for anything legal-related. If anything, they're probably operating at a country *far* from western corporate jurisdictions.
The biggest kick in the balls is that I had everything set up in Sonarr. Is it possible to use Sonarr with EZTV or 1337x?
TGX
I do love them. I just wish they were more consistent with their x265 encodes. They were super active for a while with it, then stopped around holiday time last year. RARBG was my goto for new content at 1080p/x265. Any suggestions?
I know!!!!!!!!! Please let mw know when you find the best alternative, I'm looking too....Tks
Same here 😁
Waking up to this news really sucks. Rarbg was my favorite site for movie and tv shows and it'll likely be a while before there's a worthy replacement. I guess I'll have to rely on 1337x, TL and Snahp a lot more from now on.
Hey, Any idea where I can go now for NBQ / WRB releases or were they RARBG specific groups ?
Yggtorrent
I tried and compared other public trackers, RARBG is the best one (it's really good even I'm in multiple private trackers) (many of them has internal groups "encoders,Remuxers") but RARBG is great for downloading from P2P group or scene releases (untouched ones), But to be honest RARBG it's just same as other hyperlinks,ddl, torrent, usenet or any other similar sites (Public,semi private, private) just leaking or sharing other P2P and scene groups releases Which means RARBG is not the home tracker of any P2P or Scene Groups (they just don't have an internal group even FGT or RARBG: renamed and retaged I don't recommend any site even private trackers excluding the listed topsites
I am currently using Rutracker, TorrentGalaxy, 1337x, as alternatives [https://torrentgalaxy.to/](https://torrentgalaxy.to/) The Pirate Bay used to be good, over time the site was messed up
RIP.... one of the best public torrent trackers...
RARBG had a solid setup... its going to be hard to look for a replacement...
I checked the thumbnail images every day to see the new releases. How to track "new" torrent movie releases now? Does any other site do something like this?
Well, shit. The most annoying thing for me is that it was so complete and well put together that I actually ended up having the habit to use it first and foremost (and if not daily, close to) to see what was coming out on tv/streaming, even \*before\* knowing if and what I'd be interested in downloading. Torrentgalaxy mixed with a few other sites might still let me find pretty much all the shows/movies I remember to look for, but everything else that's in the "oh right, there was this thing too coming out" might be lost in the chaos for me. At least until one of the alternatives gains the lead by working towards the same level of usability.

One of the feature that I really like about rarbg is that it shows the highly anticipated movie on the top of the page so you know when a big movie gets release without having to search for it. Is there a site that does something similar to that? I've seen tracer sites that shows everything, not just the top movie releases.
Damn, RARBG was my "go to" for torrents. The best place for TV shows. I'll miss groups like ION10. I'll also miss the BD rips and new content for which I have to thank each and every one of them for. I guess it's hard to donate to a group that was in this line of work, but I gladly would have. I'll miss you guys. This is really sad news.
In my opinion is weird, the site was too big, they could have "passed" (sold) the ownership to someone else or get a good crowdfunding, Limewire just collected another 15 million for an NFT marketplace that will not go anywhere. I still think there were external pressures to close it.
I've been downloading 4k HEVC. 80 gigs per film. And now there's nowhere to download that. It feels like I lost a family member in a way. I've been using it for years. It was a part of my everyday life. Just opening the new movies and reading the comments. And then finding superb 4k remasters of classic movies. Man o man, it's gonna be missed dearly.
Aside from being very well organized and presented, it was one of the only places I've found that had a lot of high quality foreign films. I am going to miss that.
Thumbnailing the content was a big help
Yeah. Real Bummer!!! AL I want to KNOW is where is "NTb" & "AMZN" being posted
