aXXo Temporarily Stops Releasing DVDrips
Written by Ernesto on November 28, 2007The popular DVD ripper aXXo is a BitTorrent cult figure, despised by some, worshiped by others. An estimated one million people download aXXo’s rips every month and his name is among the most searched keywords on all BitTorrent sites. Not surprisingly, rumors start to spread when there is no official aXXo release for a while.
The last official aXXo torrent was uploaded November 11, after that is has been awfully quiet. So what happened, did he get caught, is he tired of releasing DVDrips, did he have an accident? It turns out that aXXo is not gone for good, he just decided to take a break.
ADL 242, an administrator on Darkside RG, the official home of aXXo explains: “aXXo told us that he has decided to take a break, so you will not see new aXXo torrents anywhere for a while. Please show your support by keeping his torrents alive until he comes back, as always, he will post here first when he does.”
This is not the first time that aXXo has taken some time off. Last year aXXo temporarily stopped uploading movies because a website named axxotorrents.com was trying to profit from his name. A few weeks after that the site went down and aXXo continued releasing DVDrips.
Earlier this month aXXo caused a stir when he deleted all his torrents from The Pirate Bay website. Apparently aXXo wasn’t very happy with the way The Pirate Bay handled his complaints, and decided to not release his torrents there anymore.
Unfortunately, aXXo’s popularity has downsides too. We’ve seen that anti-piracy organizations use his name to trap people into downloading fake files, and malware peddlers use the aXXo brand to spread their infested software.
At this point is is not clear how long aXXo will be inactive, his fans can only pray, and hope the he will return soon.

I’ve enjoyed Axxo films, but the truth is most of his releases where just re-codes of other releases. FXM does the same thing!!
Axxo movies are not good and he needs to be kicked in the ass
hey aXXo keep up the great work 99.9% perfect every time thanks heaps keeps the kids happy there for i am happy to get some peace & quiet hehe.
aXXo RULEZ bloody legend
I am number one fan of aXXo releases and i don’t like a little comments just mention him with fucking nasty words about his release quailty and about him….axxo is the king of dvdrippers there is no doubt about that. but it isn’t the end of the world that aXXo stopped.there are vast plenty of nice releases for other dvdrippers as FXm FXG ….etc still i hope aXXo come back again with his marvellous releaese;)

AyePirates!
aye aye Capt.!!!!!!
More like Robin Hood of are times , takes from the rich and gives to the poor , media industry needs a good kick the pants .Illegal are not somebody has to challenge them from exploiting the public
Axxo has quality movies , whoever doesnt admire his work they are useless and moaning people !
Great job Axxo
Have a lovelly vocation :)
axxo has put his names in the realms on internet history.
I know for a fact many years from now people will still know the name of “axxo”. Whoever he/she is, or wherever he/she is from god bless and have a happy christmas for you truly are a legend in the torrents world, and a reliable one at that.
Wow, some people are just idiots!
Klaxxon is apparently the NEW aXXo… I don’t know if it is aXXo in disguise, or whether is is his sister or whatever…
Kl’aXXo’n - See what I mean…
But anyways, aXXo was/is a good DVD Ripper and what all these people are saying about him taking credit for someone else’s rips is retarded! WHO CARES! It’s FREE!
I agree with a lot of people on here about how the Movie industry needs to get a nice run for their money… WAY TO MUCH money goes to them for what? LACK OF TALENT that’s what! Honestly, what I do is I download one of aXXo’s movies, and if I like it, I BUY IT OFF AMAZON! HONESTLY! But otherwise, it’s a waist of time and money!
aXXo is probably just your average guy, works during the day, and rips DVD’s at night! I used to do the same thing for TV Downloads, so I can relate to him! It is a hard job, especially since you get NOTHING in return for anything…
So aXXo, if you are reading this, I’m with you man, or woman… or alien… I accept you for who you are!
Alic OUT!
Come back aXXo!!!
Right, i have read some of these comments. Comments about fuck axxo, he just re-encodes original dvds then uploads em! Firstly, look at how many downloads each torrent has. Surely that tells the critics that they are torrents that people want. Personally, i Enjoy axxo rips coz i cant handle viewing a crap Cam copy of a film where i am in fear of havin popcorn being thrown at my head. if i wanted that then i would go to the cinema. Secondly, i dont like blowing loadsa money for a film that turns out to be a big pile of jurassic park shit, so i will continue to download then if i really like the film i will go out and buy it just to support the people to bring out other good releases. Also Axxo seems to do good quality uploads before dvds are released anyway. If you dont like Quality then i can try and understand why anyone would hate on Axxo. So Axxo, Fuck the critics, stick to what your good at and hopefully, we can all enjoy what you have to offer us once again. take it easy bruv! T
I will stick to my guns and will be making a return soon in 2008, Don’t worry about that.
For all those who hate me so much, I am only providing a service, That’s all. Nothing more. I do not see any of you guys doing the same and i am willing to bet that the people who have hate filled vile towards me are the same guys who download and use my so called “Rip-Off’s” and “Low Quality Films”.
Watch out for something big happening in 2008 as well folks.
Thanks for everyone who has supported me.
Merry Christmas.
aXXo
Thx for all aXXo , and Merry Christmas
Cheers aXXo!, merry christmas to you as well.
For every good thing(you,your rips), there has to be some bad(judgmental idiots). I take the good over the bad every day. Ignore them and their voice gets small.. like their pathetic lives. Thanks again for the great rips and happy holidays!
you guys dont seriously think thats axxo
It’s not, stupid.
Down Under we call it the “tall poppy syndrome”. That is where people deprecate those who are better then themselves for no other reason than jealousy or malice. Have a great break and I for one look forward to your return. You rock!!
[quote comment="226210"]Finally,the scamming asshole is gone, maybe he’ll go for good and stop releasing shit re-encodes from scene!!.(whatever your opinion, he does infact re-encode actuall releases)[/quote]
fuck off
@ TICAL80
MAYBE YOU SHOULD STOP DOWNLOADING CAM COPYS. AND, YEAH, I DID THE EXACT SAME THING AXXO DOES, JUST TO PROVE A POINT. THE ONLY DIFFERENCE IS, THAT I USED MY OWN RETAIL SOURCE. MAYBE YOU SHOULD READ THE ENTIRE POST INSTEAD OF READING “SOME OF THE COMMENTS”. AND @ THE PEOPLE POSTING AS AXXO:
STOP BEING A BUNCH OF IDIOTS. ONLY A COMPLETE RETARD WOULD BELIEVE YOU ARE ACTUALLY AXXO. IM SURE HE HAS BETTER THINGS TO DO THAN TROLL THIS BOARD AND THROW OUT RANDOM COMMENTS. SO GROW UP. YOU KNOW, THERE HAS ONLY BEEN ABOUT 3-4 PEOPLE IN THIS POST WHO MADE ANY VALID POINTS ABOUT ANYTHING DISCUSSED. ALMOST 600 COMMENTS AND ABOUT 10% OF THEM WERE EVEN WORTH READING. IF ANYONE WANTS TO DISCUSS THE FINER POINTS OF XVID ENCODING, OR HAS ANYTHING INTELLIGENT TO SAY BESIDES FLAMING ME FOR MY OPINION, FIRE AWAY.
@ Media Locker: good luck wasting your money on lawyers in your fruitless attempts to catch aXXo.
Perhaps you’d better focus on having hollywood making better movies for more reasonable prices… just an idea.
@ retards bashing aXXo: apparently you don’t realize that aXXo is one of the very few guys who actually understands about proper releases. STFU and download someone else’s shit if you don’t appreciate that.
@ aXXo: you’ve been doing a friggin’ great job, I hope you’ll return soon and release more movies. Love!
