Best Torrent Websites of 2019 – Let the Torrenting Begin!

The summer of 2016 witnessed the shutdown of one of the most popular torrent sites, Kickass Torrents. It was a huge blow to torrent sites and their frequent users. The US government carried out an operation in cooperation with the Motion Picture Association of America (MPAA). The major ones got more guarded as the authorities became determined in their crackdown on piracy.  At the same time, a gap appeared in the torrent market. Several torrent sites rushed to fill in the empty spots left by the most successful ones.

As a matter of fact, the torrent site with the most traffic isn’t necessarily the best. So, you have to see which one suits your needs best. They all have different features and policies, so you better read up on it a bit more before blindly jumping in and face disappointment. Take a look at the top torrent sites 2019 which are often recommended by users.

The Pirate Bay

Many argue that the aptly named torrent site, The Pirate Bay, was the biggest one, and not Kickass Torrents. It’s a go-to torrent site for millions of users worldwide. It was established around 2003. The first impression of The Pirate Bay is that it is very simple. It is definitely user-friendly, so it is perfect for beginners and those who are not avid net surfers. The Pirate Bay has a great set of quick links. You may browse recently uploaded torrents there. Check out TV shows, music, top 100 torrents, audio, video, and apps.  They also offer a blog for guidance and a forum for discussion.

RARBG

This one is not as old as The Pirate Bay, but it is still one of the most popular torrent sites today. It first appeared on the scene in 2008 and has attained a higher rank now than many of the major competitors that are still far behind it. RARBG provides a complete catalog for you to browse and choose torrents from. You can check out the “News” section for updates and see if their Top 10 might interest you. A list of new torrents can be found on their homepage. Click “Box Office” for the latest and most popular movies. You can log in from the home page which is quite convenient. Their list of categories includes music, movies, games, software and TV shows.

YTS.AG

The next option is unique and caters specifically to users who are searching for YTS aka YIFY torrents. This claims to be the only torrent site for this particular variety of torrents, although there is no official connection between the two of them. Nevertheless, YTS.AG is a great place to get YIFY torrents of your favorite movies. A plus is that they offer them in 720p, 1080p and 3D resolution so you may pick as you please. Another claim that they make is that your torrent will be downloaded fastly because of their relatively smaller size of the file. Unfortunately, their user experience is not all that impressive in this regard.

Torrentz2

Just like Kickass Torrents, Torrentz.eu was the favorite among users before it voluntarily shut down in August 2016. Yes, 2016 was a sad year for the torrent world. Luckily, for fans of Torrentz.eu, a clone popped up soon after. Torrentz2.eu is the exact same thing as Torrentz.eu. It is essentially a copycat created for the sole purpose of replacing the torrent giant. It’s so good that you can work with a familiar layout and enjoy quality torrents. They claim to be a “meta-search engine and multi-search” system. You may quickly find their list of indexed sites in their “Help” section if you’re curious.

1337X

Layout and design are very important for a torrent site because users want fuss-free search and download. 1337X stands out for its user-friendly design that offers plenty of clarity to a new visitor; they obviously pay attention to details. You’ll instantly notice little changes in their website according to the current season. They have a Christmas theme and a quick link to holiday movies on their homepage in December. They provide alternate domains in case any of the movies is blocked. 1337X also displays the “Best of the Week”. They don’t just have Christmas favorites but also foreign movie favorites for an improved search. You may also browse torrents for TV shows, games, applications, and others. There are also quick links for more categories on the right including music and documentaries.

EZTV.AG

This one is quite different from the last choice but we still made it among the top torrent sites 2018.  The website layout seems a bit cluttered but the important aspects are still easy to locate. You may log in from the home page at the top. The search bar lies right next to it so that it saves your time. The TV show list, forum, “Help” and FAQ links are exactly above it. As the name suggests, EZTV.AG focuses mainly on TV shows. A unique search feature here is that you can decide if you want the video with 480p or 720p resolution. Since it has a controversial history regarding ownership, some users choose to boycott it.

Torrentdownloads

If there is a blockage, you will definitely be able to find alternate links with a quick Google search or through the use of a reliable VPN. The design and layout are reminiscent of Kickass torrents, so that’s a good thing. The main menu on the right lays out categories like music, movies, anime, books, games, and software. It even has quick links for torrents from the day before and that specific day. You can see the most popular torrents from each category on the homepage too. There’s a no-nonsense search bar on the top right.

Limetorrents

This is similar to Torrentdownloads in user experience. However, the search bar on the top has filters based on categories like music, movies, pictures, mobile, adult, etc. It’s great that you can easily find links for the “Top Torrents” and “Latest Torrents”. You may browse each category separately from the list on the right as well.
