Mininova recently announced that it has removed all torrent files from its servers that point to copyrighted works to comply with a court ruling, a move that renders it useless as an aid to digital piracy.  Mininova was one of the most popular torrent tracking websites with 175 million visits and close to a billion page views over the last month.<\/p>\n

The Mininova ‘torrent closure’ has left a void in the market, but it is likely to be replaced by one or a combination of competing websites.  Torrentfreak has recently released a list of websites which may be used to substitute Mininova.<\/p>\n

“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,” the Torrentfreak website states.<\/p>\n
