Suprnova was so sick back in the day but since then I've been on Private Torrent Sites only. The odd time Piratebay really helped out for some of those random odd downloads that were harder to find. Never used isohunt though.

sadly isohunt was basically the only one I used.
at most I dl maybe a movie once or twice a month, a tv show I missed here and there, but not enough to really care to much about the site I used.
anyways, isohunt is gone. ive been looking at some sites, "torrentz.eu" "mininova.org" and a few others that were suggested to me. most of them ask for a credit card to sign up...which makes me stay away from them...so, for someone like me, a person who rarely downloads movies/tv/big item files, what would be a decent site to use that's VERY user friendly?
...ive the computer skills of homer simpson while drunk.

...what appears to be a cloned version of the site (available at isohunt.to and isohunt.ee) has emerged. Whois information on both domains turns up no contact information. However, online records show that the new site is hosted in Australia.
