TPB (least to me) does a better job filtering the garbage. | |

| Re: Pirate Bay gets all the attention said by r81984  :I have never heard of anyone getting letters about downloading except from pirate bay trackers,... Hello my name is david and I haven't gotten one yet.
said by r81984 :so your 2:1 ratio bullshit is garbage. Also I have never downloaded a virus from any tracker site let alone mininova. Well as far as the 2:1 ratio, it seems when I just do a simple test of a show I miss I like to watch I get more hits on the A/V and malware from Miniova than TPB. For instance, I missed a mythbusters episode I wanted to see. All 4 sources from mininova.org were nothing but hosted torrent viruses. TPB had as least 2 that were not viruses or "torrented viruses" (if that's appropriate).
Of course then again I still have a VCR and videotape, I guess I could have recorded the show for next time.
AFAIK, the 2:1 stands in my eyes based on a simple torrent tracker test of just a simple TV show. Another one was I wanted to watch was the knight rider 2008 episode. Again, another night I just missed the show I went to mininova because TPB didn't have it as of yet. Out of the 8 trackers I looked up 8 were nothing but hosted torrent viruses. I waited about a week later and TPB on it's first search and successful download I was able to watch the show with the first one.
So in my eyes (or as least here) mininova seems to be just about a complete miss to me. It's ratio with me is 2:1 based on attempts tried. I got more success on TPB than I have with mininova.
