> Can anybody explain what's the fuzz regarding pirate bay? I mean, there are tons of good torrent sites and search engines everybody use every day...

Such as?

No, seriously. This is why TPB going down is a big deal. There are plenty of other trackers, but most people don't know about them, and Google makes them somewhat difficult to find. And, of course, the really good trackers are by invitation only.

So enlighten us poor heathens and share some links. :)

Besides adding "torrent" word while googling, one good search engine is https://torrentz.eu/

From that, you can as well find about http://www.monova.org/ http://kickass.so/ etc...

Also, high quality sites, albeit in russian:

http://rutracker.org/

http://newstudio.tv/

http://www.lostfilm.tv/

http://nnm-club.me/ is also OK
