Ten Alternatives to Mininova

Ed. note: Last week, popular BitTorrent tracker Mininova started limiting torrents to only approved partners. If you're hunting for a new torrent-tracking home, all-things-BitTorrent weblog TorrentFreak is here to offer some worthwhile alternatives.




Thankfully, there are still plenty of alternatives for those BitTorrent users who are looking for the latest Ubuntu, OpenSUSE, or Fedora release.

Below we provide a random list of public torrent sites that are still open, but there are of course hundreds more sites we could have included. If your personal favorite is missing, feel free to post it in the comments below–-preferably with your reasons why it should be included in any upcoming lists.
