aXXo Temporarily Stops Releasing DVDrips

Written by Ernesto on November 28, 2007 

The 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.

aXXo Takes Some Time OffThe 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.

Look Axxo is very talented he is one of few than can make “good” quality movies to fit on one single disk no it doesn’t have the best picture or sound but hey i can also fit 4-5 on one disk or an entire on on one cd i have no complaints about that at all… the color and quality is good enough what else do you need its a free movie so why does everyone talk shit because they have a small dick and have the need to be better than everyone else by having better quality movies? well i can see every detail in mine and am just happy plus its ALWAYS like a 30 min download no complaints from me so i take a 8 out of 10 quality movie with a 30 min download and multiple on 1 disk than a 3 hour download of the same movie with not even noticeable UNLESS being side by side differences where it’s going to cost me alot more to burn

IDK how some of you downloaders can say shit about axxo. the video quality is fine. i watch it fullscreen and the quality difference doesnt matter at all. plus, the 700mb file size is perfect. if you honestly think “this is too low of quality” when you first start watching the movie then you srsly need to rethink this. its free, but illegal material. you don’t pay for it, yet you complain that it’s not good enough. anyone who thinks piracy is bad or that axxo is bad, you need to look at society and actualy think about this shit. we are paying money to see movies. this money goes to the overindulged record and production companies, who then pay the overindulged artists and actors. even with piracy, they still live over indulged lives. its not hurting them, and millions of dollars are being wasted by them on nothing, along with record companies, who pay millions to antipiracy companies to trick people and set up fake shit. its all a waste of time. no matter what, no matter how much is done against piracy, we will fight back. piracy will never die as long as we live. not even if there is no internet. (before you say anything think about it).

Hello boys and girls,
I am worried sick about my million $ bonus this year. If you are not buying my dvds at $25 each, likely I would be getting a few hundred thousand $ less. Poor me !

Axxo - by giving away all these wonderful movies free of charge, you are not helping me one bit, may you rot in hell !

To all the anti-Axxo groups here - thank you so much for your strong support, I can’t thank you enough. Having said that, I may have to raise the movie price to make up for my loss in income.

Thank you so much again (and please keep up the bashing)

I usually look for aXXo releases first, then move on to others if i can’t find one. Drives my man crazy. He only downloads from newsgroups. I glanced through many of the posts, and often saw people advising others to look for “real scene” releases. This may sound dumb, but how does a person identify a “real scene” release? Is the torrent labeled in some way? Is there a list of “real scene releasers”? Or, is this just learned through trial and error?

Thanks, and Happy New Year!

617 Dec 31, 2007 at 10:50 by aXXo RoCkS

FUCK YOU ALL , It’s FREE DUDE !! OMG , get a life!!!! IT IS FREE FREE FREE FREE , ASSHOLE!!!

618 Dec 31, 2007 at 12:41 by long time dl'r first time poster

this is the issue in a nut shell…

Scene = $ for the Scene!

aXXo = freedom for the p2people

Scene hates aXXo because aXXo RIPS

draw downloaders away from the drive by sites the Scene uses. Trust? check for yourself use spyware listings sites and you will see that several “Scene” sites are listed as DO NOT VIEW! so whats this all mean?

that Scene hates P2P because it takes money from Scene people. and what fucking risks do they take that i dont? they pay someone to steal screener copy. then they re encode it and release it as work? go fucking fuck a rolling donught! all of the aXXo hater boys are just jealous Scene wanna be’s . aXXo RIPS sre the most used and Dl’d RIPS in p2p bar none.

so take that Scene Boys and try and fit it into your scam.

reason Scene is hard to get? because you have to jump site to site and they make thier pennies per click that way duh! come on people use the grey matter a bit.

aXXo = free quality DL’s at a usable size for most of the planet.

all you hear about scene is the files are bigger the quality is better. but what the Scene girls dont say is that there are shit for seeds (72 Scene Seeds for I AM Legend as opposed to 2000+ here on TPB) and the release still has a sound / video ratio thats off the chart! non synced audio sounds like shitty hard work from the Scene to me?

If you drop the fucking issue about the riaa and the other Orgs. and drop all the lame ass Scene emo whineing and drop the crap fake aXXo and other so called UpLoaders movie files whats left? aXXo by the bushel. or aXXo Reloaders either way its the same file right?

so someone make me wrong how is a larger Scene file any better than a smaller more usable file?

or is it just the Scene is really a bunch of wanna be Beverly hills 90210
emo rich fuks with top o the line equip?

i think you all can guess the correct answer.

lets see a 4 gb movie that fits on a 50 inch plasma on 2 discs and maybe the subtitles and audio works ok?

or a 700mb file that fits on any media and is of a quality that would make any Distobution company proud to distribute?

well i have no plasma nor do i have a
media center my mommie bought me for xmas. and blu ray LMFAO ever hear of beta? like it was the compitition to VHS back in the day? Well wheres the beta now? or how about those great laser discs? Blu ray is just another beta waiting to die. DVD is what the people of the planet use. Blu ray is for the Haves. us have nots have to suffer thru DVD’s lol i have seen a lot of both and TBPH theres not much difference unless you have mega bucks to drop on a sound/media system.

So to bring this to a close.

Scene = Scam!
aXXo = P2P

you can do your own math, or research the subject yourself.

its all there in black and white if you only take the time to look.

notice the dozens of “SCENE” replies here in this topic? 90% anonoymus replies.

lol hmmm cant be bothered to name themselves, lol cowards. and to all who say aXXo has fan boys? who da fuck are you kidding thats a straight emo scene term “fanboy” make up your own words Scene, your so origianl with your theft of movies that you bitch about someone who makes your shit useable for the rest of us!

if you all are so Scene then y dont you all stop re encoding the movies you work so hard at and let the p2p world suffer thru more aXXo or other legit RIPPERS without your oh so hard labor.
oh yeah nm i know this answer … cuz then where would you get your pennies per click revenue from? lol SCENE MY ASS. its a group of rich spoiled punks who think cuz thier mommy or daddy has a edumacation and bought them everything that they can say they OWN THE SCENE! wow can i have some of those drugs the ones that make you Scene pricks all feel like youre 10 feet tall and people worship you?? but b4 you give em to me can aXXo make the pills smaller and taste so much better so i can take them first? thx Scene.

and thx aXXo i only DL aXXo RIPS
1. 700 mb or less
2. if it says its a aXXo release it is(unlike so many of the Scene releases)
3. its always so much fun to see the dredges of the net crawl out and post worthless crap on the comments.
4.the # of seeders for a aXXo release always always always run laps around the # of seeders for ANY other files here on tpb or on most any torrent site.
5. aXXo is as well known a name to the P2P community as coke is to society in general, and with such a popular name comes great responsibility, thats free P2P for us always.

aXXo = quality+small size+large seed base

thats enuf for me and let me say ive done this shit for years and years
remember Napster? i was one of the first few hundred on that ill fated venture dude went to my school! lucky me!
and in all this time i have been a pirate and will always be a pirate!

and i havent found a single other source i would support or even bother to post this about besides aXXo.

bottom line if you are like the rest of us then aXXo is the right RIPPER for you.

if youre a prick with a nose out to here >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

and a fat wallet then go suck off some emo Scene boys and get your low quality high MB files from them.

nuff said go to sleep all you good kids and get a good job and buy your shit. leave the P2p to the grown ups we know what we want and we dont want a bunch of stupid worthless shit with our free ration of entertainment, get the point yet all you Scene Boys?

im sure most readers stopped reading on line 3 of this post. lol

but the hardcore P2p players know of what i speak and im sure that a lot of others will agree with me.

ok so lets hear it … i cant wait to tear some Scene boys apart
lets hear some real good excuses to cover up the truth i spout.

621 Jan 02, 2008 at 00:52 by Sundance

Let the poor man rest for goodness sake. I noticed all this flameing that many are afraid to use your name, That is because you were first in line to download his movies. Get a life and get on with it.

[quote comment="226247"]aXXo is a living legend…and if you can’t appreciate the work he does….don’t bitch about it…just turn off your computer and unplug it…the big bad pirate won’t bother you ANY more that way.

@ Media Locker & those who think like him….

Fuck you, and you know why? Cause rather than exploiting us as consumers, and the artists you “represent”…we’ve taken the power to control the cost of things out of your hands and you can’t cope with it. Tough shit! You took my money for years, now I have the option to try anything before I buy it…in full unlocked and fully usable…I still support what is worth supporting and is REASONABLY priced…but I won’t pay for crap anymore…or buy it and be disappointed.[/quote]

623 Jan 02, 2008 at 05:28 by Tregal

thx axxo for your movies. It always makes me feel safe when i see your name on movies.

HEY!

A question regarding torrent!
Just read this of wikipedia.

“To reduce the spread of pirating, some companies have hired people to release “fake” torrents, which look real and are meant to be downloaded, but while downloading the individual does not realize that the company that owns the software has received his IP address. They will then contact his/her ISP, and further legal action may be taken from the company/ISP.”

Is this true?

I would appreciate your thoughts on this!

Thx

Its not hard to put a fake ip addy to make sure it is un trackable! Axxo this is Burner.rr Thanks for the first picks will be hearing from u soon can’t wait for the release of your web site! Peace Man. It’s nice being the man in the back ground at times!

625 Jan 02, 2008 at 09:15 by 123jafar

Fake torrents are really bad because u
could get caught by the FBI and ur reputation will be ruined in ur country when u grow up so dont download a lot of movies every day, just one a week, something like that. PS: i respect aXXo ways and the police’s priority
