More than 3 billion downloads!

We are pleased to announce that Mininova reached the milestone of 3 billion (3.000.000.000) torrent downloads today!

In January this year, Mininova reached 1 billion downloads and in June 2 billion downloads. This means we probably won’t reach the 4 billion downloads before the end of this year (as we hoped), but more likely in 4 or 5 months from now. The news-site TorrentFreak has more detailed info.

To avoid some confusion: we’re counting the number of times a .torrent file is downloaded from our website, not how often the data described in the .torrent file is completely downloaded by a peer.

We also reached new heights in the Alexa statistics, Mininova currently ranks as one of the 60 biggest websites in the world.

To cope with this growth, we added some server-power the past weeks. Tomorrow another new server will be installed. More statistics of our servers can be found on the Mininova graphs page.

This all is great news, which wouldn’t have happened without the support of you (the users) and our moderating team. Thanks a lot!

There’s some more great news coming up the next couple of days, so please stay tuned :)

    GET MOAR SERVER POWER!

    mininova has been the slowest website almost ever (with load times of almost 1 minute on some pages). Mininova needs 10 times the amount of server power.

    Its not hard to understand why mininova has so many downloads considering 2 huge torrent sites have gone down due to CRIA and RIAA, Oink and Demonoid were huge.

    Now all their members have started using Mininova for their downloads the download rate is bound to increase, I just hope that Mininova doesnt attract unwanted eyes towards their site

  96. 96 ammo1981

    Gotta admit it’s interesting news but i like most other loyal mininova users are more interested in when the site will become usable due to all the demonoid slags using it lately…come on mininova its been 3 weeks since all demonoids imps started using it when are you going to upgrade the servers? Any more usable and everyone will be off to piratebay as that always runs well. Any one else feel the same?

  97. 97 Digital

    I recently got to your site when a friend told me about it. This site is great. You’ll have to couple with more success. Believe me. 2 millions downloads this year is going to be 4 millions in 2008.

  98. 98 Bainey

    Message for Reid Redone if You read the blogg forum WILL YOU SEED YOUR TORRENTS Properly I’m getting really anoied with people who either hogg there dl’s then disappear or people not seeding torrents correctly Reeds torrents have been stopping at 99 Percent I had one torrent stop at 99.9 what am I surpose to do with 99.9 torrent and one that keeps going up and down at 99.6 and eta going up and down,
    Last Time I checked the whole point of Torrenting or P2P is To share and share alike,So For God sake everyone share

  99. 99 Bainey

    P.s Apart from my last msg I Love Mininova its my favorite Torrent Site Keep Up The Good work lets go for 5 billion Download soon guys and gals

    Isn’t mininova becoming more afraid that with all this attension, and high rank in alexia, they’ll be the next target by the RIAA? I mean, is it really a smart idea to spend so much now on these new servers when there’s a high chance that they’ll just get shut down like any other illegal site out there ?

    I mean let’s face it, i’m grateful for all the downloads, but it’s illegal in the eyes of the RIAA etc… and it’s just a few words to the ISPs or someone, and the site is down… =/

    hey the gys who put the fake films under axxo is tony morris from freeus.co.uk i did my research for 2 days solid and the ip always go back to his ip address,well guys we have to take this idiot down for putting fake shit on the mininova website his irc chat is irc.irc-future.com and irc.-utopia.com and breakabells well are we gonna retaliate or what i am gonna try to doss him but i iant gonna do it myself

  106. 106 s_s-a

    The RIAA is not the law. Mininova is not illegal. People in US (you know who you are) need to realize that the law is suppose to work for the people not the corporations.

    Keep it up Mininova. Me, and a few others I believe, have been a little impatient with some of the problems lately. However It will have to get a lot worse before I loose faith in you guys.

    All the best in the future.

    IRC Utopia arnt they the forum site that snitch pirate bay up to The MAA Earlier this and had them shut down If it is the same people shut the bastards down there one of many forum sites trying to get torrents sites closed.
    Torrent site such as mininova will over come this idiots and will have the last laugh when torrent and p2p becomes legalized it’s only a matter of time before victory is ours
    Once again keep up the good work guys Love mininova loads!!!!

    P.s Stay clear of the software on torrent sites at the moment some out there is creating loads of Trojans and its bad crap trust me
