Merry Christmas, torrent fans: Demonoid is back up

Filed under: Web services, P2P

Demonoid, one of the most popular torrent sites on the web, went down due to hardware failures and data loss back in September. Although this left a hole in the hearts of many torrent aficionados, there was a glimmer of hope in November, when Demonoid's tracker came back online. Now, more good news: as of yesterday, Demonoid's website is back up, and registered users can sign in. Servers are busy, so the site might be inaccessible at times while things stabilize again.

The site is reportedly back to the way it was in early September, when it went down, except that a couple hundred new torrents have already been uploaded. Old torrents are still there, and users' upload:download ratios seem to be intact. RSS feeds are still down, and the site isn't taking new registrations right now, but it does seem to be alive and well. Happy holidays, torrent fans!
