Top 5 P2P File Sharing Sites

1. The Pirate Bay

The Pirate Bay is probably the most well known BitTorrent website on the web today. This Swedish-based site has been in existence since 2003 and has survived an onslaught of legal threats to try and shut it down. With over 2.8 million registered users and in excess of 1 million active torrents, The Pirate Bay is the largest file sharing database on the Internet.
MiniNova is another popular BitTorrent site that has seen over 5 billion downloads since it was first launched in 2005. This large P2P file sharing website was born after the first reincarnation of SuprNova which was shutdown in 2004. It has a good search engine that has advanced search options, or alternatively you can browse through the different categories; MiniNova has over 35 music genres in its database.

3. IsoHunt

A BitTorrent indexing site which moved its servers from the United States to Canada after it was temporarily shutdown in January 2007. Now IsoHunt is one of the largest file sharing websites that regularly indexes over 1 million torrents.
