We offer a behind-the-scenes glimpse into some of the best, most sought-after private BitTorrent trackers. If you’ve never seen the insides of some of these elite private sites, we recommend you take a look at what you’re missing.
TorrentLeech
TorrentLeech is quickly becoming one of the most coveted private BitTorrent accounts for any BT fan. With unrivaled speed and amazing pre-times, TL offers 0day/0sec torrents in all categories. While never open publicly to new signups, invites are handed out to qualifying members on a regular basis. TL is also one of the most used private trackers - there are a ton of seeders and leechers so uploading to other TL members isn’t all that difficult, either (a seedbox helps, but isn’t mandatory like some other trackers). New members have a 48-hour ‘wait time’ before the torrent becomes active - once a sharing ratio hits 0.4 this goes away.

Blackcats-Games.net
It goes without saying: Blackcats-Games is all about the games - be it console, Windows or Linux releases. Registered users hover in at around 50,000 (they stopped taking new signups back in November, 2007). With a 2,100% seed/leech ratio, downloads are assuredly zippy from their 6,000 offered torrents.

Everyone is familiar with Shareaza for P2P filesharing. But there’s a neat little spinoff called ShareazaPlus that’s recently been released. ShareazaPlus is a mod version of Shareaza, and includes enhancements to significantly speed up downloads, file searches and networking performance under WinXP.

With an ‘assimilation agenda’ that only the Borg would be proud of, the RIAA / IFPI and their puppeteers have almost completed the takeover of all the major P2P players, and just need one final filesharing cornerpiece to complete the home-run. Batting .750 with the new Bearshare, iMesh and the most recent takeover (webjacking) of Shareaza[dot]com; there’s but just one lone P2P juggernaut remaining -

It’s matter-of-fact that almost all BitTorrent sites carry movie torrents (if they know what’s good for them), and it’s not too difficult to find the High-Def (HD) video files in most cases. A simple query for x264 or 720p turns up some sweet LCD-friendly results in a public BitTorrent search engine. But very few (if any) offer a category devoted to HD - everything is just jammed into that VIDEO 
MOVIES pigeonhole. If you love HD as much as us, we feel your pain - finding a steady stream of high-res film releases on public BitTorrent sites is about as difficult as finding a Toshiba HD-DVD player that’s NOT on sale these days.
With the soaring popularity of BitTorrent, torrent mongers now have a wide selection of sites to choose from. We can’t think of a better way to aid and abet its growing success than to put out a list of private BitTorrent websites. So ditch those public sites and start narrowing in on what you really need.
When it comes to the Internet, no matter how overt and honest people are, we don’t want our privacy to be invaded. While President Bush may defend domestic eavesdropping, it doesn’t mean you should. Things have gone from bad to worse - why, we can’t even send an email without worrying about it being intercepted. Every site we visit, every facebook or hotmail login, every search in a browser - it’s all recorded, logged and saved in giant datastore farms, surreptitiously laying-in-wait for that one day where it’s all dragged out and thrown back in our faces. It’s anyone’s guess who’ll be granted access to this datamine down the road.
Every BitTorrent software developer claims that theirs is the fastest BitTorrent client, but which one really IS the fastest? There are so many variables to be considered: Seed/peer ratio of individual torrents, public or private trackers (and number of trackers in a torrent), DHT “trackerless” support and UPnP port forwarding, just to name a few. Even the default “factory” settings of each client can have an big impact on download speeds.
