EZTV Now Accessible Under New Domain Names
Written by enigmax on October 28, 2007In the wake of the OiNK takedown, many thousands of people started to panic today when they tried to access EZTV and instead got directed to Google. But there is no need to worry, EZTV is alive and well and now available via two new domains.
It’s understandable why the BitTorrent community feels a bit jittery this week after the shock demise of the OiNK tracker, particularly when another top site seemingly disappeared today.
Back in March we described EZTV as ‘the leading TV-torrent distribution group’ so when people tried to access www.eztvefnet.org today and got simply directed back to Google, panic started to creep in.
Luckily, this error is the result of some administrative issues and EZTV is alive, well and offering this message to their users:
Due to some misunderstandings during the transfers of domains relating to EZTV, the domain www.eztvefnet.org has been temporarily lost and now appears to redirect to a google query for EZTV. While we are working on resolving this issue, please be advised that there are alternative domains leading to our site - www.eztv.it and www.eztv.nl
NovaKing, admin at EZTV told TorrentFreak: “We are currently having some dns issues with eztvefnet.org so would like to inform our loyal fans that we prefer for people to start using the shorter easier to remember domain names!”

Knew something was fishy.
I apologize to the community of the EZTV fanbase. One of my mis-adventures was a little difficult to get through, but as usual I prevailed, and now everything is back to normal. Now….back to me jellybabies!!
It is or was enevitable.
Whoa
Seems like the orac program still had some bugs in it, but hopefully the new patch can stabilze things from here on out.
So eztv is not shut down like tv links?!! Thank God….I really freaked out
Sounds like this has something to do with the previous aticle’s mention that google provides links to pirited content.
I see what the admins said…but doesn’t this seem like a bit of a coincidence?
VIVA LA LINKING :]
Thesprawl.se also still works…
I was just about to say that alky.
Thesprawl.se always works
guess d e m o n o i d is going down day by day….
any1 having problems accessing
d e m o n o i d website?
Why type demonoid with spaces? Whats the point?
It’s up though, by the way…
EZTV and VTV are colossal scumbags, why do they think they are entitled to add their names to releases just because they know how to run two commands?
We’re better off if idiot poseur groups like them get raided and lose their internet privileges.
Complete scum.
EZTV are NOT just puting their names in files you IDIOT ^^^^
They distribute them if you didnt know. Wonder why you get such good speeds at eztv? They have about a hundred users with high upload and that is why YOU are a scumbag.
EZTV is a DISTRIBUTION GROUP! They seed the files if you so dumb to call them scumbags retard
access demonoid through stealthfinder if in Canada.
Yes, us distributing entertainment to the masses without getting any compensation at all for it definately makes us colossal scumbags.
We never take any honour for the ripping / capping / packing / whatever of the shows. We always leave the cap groups’ names in the releases, and NEVER add our own except in the torrent file itself (we would be idiots if we didn’t). Frankly, I’m getting tired of this argument…
Anyway, yes, some slight DNS issues going on. Hoping to get them resolved soon.
eztv is great, i swear by it for all my television downloads. keep up the good work :) :)
Hey, Mister Anonymous, if you think that EZTV is such a bunch of scum bags go back to Limewire. You’re probably a leeching piece of shit who doesn’t know the first thing about The Scene, Groups, Rules, etc. We don’t want your kind near our sites, so stay away.
I will say this, despite this recent hiccup, EZTV has been more reliable to access than all of the topsites I’ve ever used (Though the speeds leave something to be desired, especially with people like Anonymous leeching constantly). So, keep up the good work guys.
I thought I had lost eztv! That would have been a sad day for me, loosing OINK wasn’t a big deal for me though.

Yay, more idiots who think they should decide who can and can’t use the internet. Have you considered a career in government?

EZTV… A topsite? XD
Sorry, not true at all :P
I also recommend thesprawl.se, thats the domain I originally found it under!

yall need to upload “Keeping Up With The Kardashians”
we had rOADHOGz in the nineties..
VTV & EZTV are the couriers of this decade.. nothing more, nothing less.
They’re not scene related.
And it seems that RSS hasn’t been brought back up with the new domain names. This really sucks, now I am going to have to check eztv more often to make sure I download the shows I want.
EZTV IS the top site for TV…..so you know what… why dont you people just leave. stop talking shit. just go.. either download and seed and support or go elsewhere im sure all of us loyal supporters do not want to hear the shit that is spewing from you. so just leave. go to best buy get a fucking VCR and tape your shit. im tired of listening to you fucking leechers whine. go fuck yourself and we will call it even.
I like how I’m watching the latest episode of CSI and like half way through the airing of it, the episode is already on eztv ready to download lol.
EZTV is the bomb. They have been the most reliable source for clean releases. Because of them I have years of programing and search for their tag for the latest releases
Long live EZTV..Long live Demonoid in canada. Even if we have to proxy :|..

Christ, I had complete forgotten about those douchebags. Couldn’t even courier ascii properly.. :roll:
With Oink and Tv-links both going down this week…I am glad there is no problems with eztv.
for those who need rss feeds here is one. It is not on eztv servers, but it is of their content

I worded that poorly, what I meant is that EZTV has been more reliable THAN topsites, especially those I used to use when I was a syncer in the scene.
Nothing beats the speeds you get from topsites, but EZTV has been much more reliable overall…slow and steady wins the race I guess.

No it’s not: it’s the bottom end of p2p, after private sites, Usenet, FTP (topsites)
Doesn’t mean EZTV isn’t OK, it is but not very fast & not very safe
[quote comment="198369"]EZTV and VTV are colossal scumbags, why do they think they are entitled to add their names to releases[/quote]Neither EZTV nor VTV add their names to the releases…
Downloaded files contain only the release group…
Plus, EZTV don’t have ads or any “donation” button… which makes them kinda more respectable than most of the torrent websites. Yep, that’s right, the admins of EZTV lose money because of the server costs and all, and don’t have (nor ask) anything in return.

EZTV, like any other source, is only as safe as you make it. I have never dl’ed a file from EZTV that was not what it said it was.
Everything that is released on EZTV has been checked by an admin. No one can upload torrents but the admins. So yeah, there has never been and there will never be any fake on EZTV.

You don’t know what the hell you’re talking about!!! EZTV is the top not the bottom because unlike Usenet, it’s free. If you want to download superfast via newsgroups, you need to pay money for that privilege! Private sites suck–I know from first hand knowledge being a member of scenemachine & torrentleech. Especially scenemachine, they don’t have enough members and I don’t download much from them anymore because you must seed back to 1:1 or keeping seeding for 48 hours even if there are no leechers! So for example I just wanted to see what would happen if I downloaded the latest episode of ‘The Hills’; I couldn’t even get close to seeding back to 1, I had to keep my computer on for a lousy 48 hours–that costs money (paying more for my electric bill) & for what?
The same goes for torrentleech, in that most times I can seed back to one but I NEED seed back every single time I download anything–again that costs me money in the end! EZTV is great in that if I don’t want to seed back to one every single TV program I download, I don’t have to–that saves me money! If I’m downloading 5 TV torrents off of EZTV and when I’m done, if I’ve seed maybe 3 back to one and 2 others back to maybe 60% or 70 %, I turn off my computer!!! I’m under no obligation to keep my computer on and wait until every single torrent I’ve downloaded is seeded back to 100%!!
You also say EZTV is not very fast–yah maybe if you’re on dial-up! I’m on high-speed, if I set my uTorrent for unlimited download speed and 60kB/s upload speed, I average easily 150 kB/s as my download speed! But I’ve gone as high as 400 kB/s download speed with EZTV–so what the hell are you talking about?
Also you say EZTV is not very safe? In what way, are you having unprotected sex while you download? There’s no viruses attached, there’s no spyware attached, these files are strictly AVI’s; you download them and then you play them–simple. There’s no RAR’s to unpack, so there’s never any torrents packed with password protected files, where you need to go to a site and pay to get a password. By the way those people are professional thieves, even if they charge a $1 to get a password, if you pay by credit card, there’s nothing stopping them from selling your credit card number on the Internet!
So where are you getting your information that EZTV isn’t good or it isn’t safe?
Also what I love about EZTV is you can search for a TV show and they’ll have lots of past active torrents to download from past episodes. And once again so many people are seeding and leeching past episodes that the download speed for past episodes are just as fast or are even sometimes faster than the current episodes for the same show. A perfect example for me is that I’ve recently gotten into MythBusters and I’ve downloaded most of this past season via EZTV–there’s lots of people still sharing these torrents!
I also like EZTV’s TV news, the calender, and I especially like it’s unique countdown list that it provides; other P2P, private torrents and Usenet services don’t provide these things!
So…you were saying about EZTV…what–you kind of lost me at the word ‘not’!
I’m still waiting on my first remarks to get posted, if they do get posted–these are the following type O’s I’ve discovered that I made:
In my second last paragraph I say:
“I also like EZTV’s TV news, the calender, and I especially like it’s unique countdown list that it provides; other P2P, private torrents and Usenet services don’t provide these things!”
The word “calender” should be “calendar” and the word “it’s” should be “its”; I’m now proofreading my back-up copy. It’s 4:45 AM EST, I had trouble sleeping, I’m now going back to bed–good night!

Ok…this is Davy, this stupid web site won’t for some reason post my original remarks, I guess because of its length but ironically it posted my second short notes about my corrections (post #39)! So because of this, I’m going to post my original article in several parts because this remark box will obviously only publish a limited amount of characters.

so how we can get the ultimate bittorent in a second?

test 2
Will you allow me to please finish posting under Davy or are you going to block me? I have a totally of 259 words left that’s all–OK?
What does “your response is awaiting moderation” mean? I’m not swearing, I’m not cursing, I’m not flaming so why can’t you allow me to finish my thoughts?
Well…thanks for nothing! I’ve tried 6 times to post part 5 and you’ve refused me–goodbye!!!

Heh, 150 or 400 isn’t exactly high-speed. That being said though, I’ve hit my practical max throughput (3.2MBps) several times downloading from there. It all depends on how fast you get on and who’re actually seeding. Generally, if I get on within minutes of the link being posted I get great speeds - wait too long and the original seed is gone leaving a lot of hit’n'runners.
Davy please never talk again, You don’t no squat from the little experience you say you have. TL and SM are no where near top tier Private Trackers come back when you have been on FTN ScT.
can I post?
I’m Davy, I’m not posting anymore to you A-holes!
#52 I have a 3.25 Mpbs down & an 800 Kpbs connection up!! Do you have any clue about how bit torrents work?
#53 I have alot of experience!!! Every damn tracker, private or public get the EXACT same stuff from the EXACT same release groups!!! So please spare me your knowledge!! What difference does it make where you get it–huh?????????????????
istole.it still works :/
Thanks for the info. I was pretty freaked out when I couldn’t find EZTV today - I love that site.
Davy is a complete moron. He has no idea what he’s talking about and can’t even figure out how to post here. Seriously you have no idea what you are talking about, not all sites are the same and some sites help you to get your ratio better. I own one of the big private sites and people don’t have much trouble keeping 1:1 there.
Think before you speak.

haha, I was getting worried myself about what happened to EZTV. I thought they got hacked or something lol.
anyways, I’m glad it’s still alive. EZTV is great, I download all my favorite shows from there.
thank god, it scared the shit out of me for a second.
even though I dont use eztv for my actual downloading, I use it for the nice overview of stuff that aired on that day. :)

Pathetic leecher.
Davy, you’re an idiot. First, you post something over and over again, complaining about it not being posted when it is being posted. Second, what you post is stupid.
Private torrent sites aren’t the top either. Private FTP’s are. Only an idiot would say public bittorrent is better then private http://FTP.
thanks for the information! i was freak out! i visit eztv’s web site every day.
By “not safe” original Anonymous probably meant that it’s not safe because EZTV uses bittorrent, which is a p2p. Anyone can connect to the public server and get a list of ip’s of who’s downloading particular show and then sue them. The fact(or fiction) that no one does it doesn’t mean that EZTV is 100% safe…
Personally I use EZTV only for informational purposes. I look which shows come out then go to newzbin and download them from newsgroups. Also you mentioned that you have to pay for the privilege of using newsgroups. All true. Ever heard of expression “you get what you pay for”?
Private FTPs are truly the fastest way to get episodes. I know of some private IRC channels with bots that serve episodes sometimes 30m-1h faster then they show up on bt/usenet. I don’t use irc though, it’s too slow for me >_>
Christ davy EZTV takes a good 30mins to a Hr to get episodes uploaded I’ve already watched the Ep by the time they put it out. If he have been on any decent tracker you would know this.
thanks god
Well I gotta say I can all me ep from there…at decent speeds….
http://galacticcentral.org
Is site still working today
Thanks for the info. I’ve been trying to find this for couple of days.
Long live the free sharing :)
you guys are fucking morons
LOL…
“Christ davy EZTV takes a good 30mins to a Hr to get episodes uploaded I’ve already watched the Ep by the time they put it out. If he have been on any decent tracker you would know this.”
Man, you have to learn the lost art of patience! What are you in such a hurry for: to watch a tv episode?! You can’t wait an hour or so?!
It scared me when eztv dissapeared
/me is happy enough for ed2k to work it’s magic. by the time i’m caught up with last week’s show, this week’s show is downloaded.
bunch of kids fighting over who’s fastest. please…
so what are the new domain names for eztv ….
Gah, i think http://www.spotep.com/spotted is better, much better layout
eztv.it and eztv.nl are down now anyone knows if they got a new IP or domain?
Eztv.it and eztv.nl work for me. Istole.it is also working.
i’m not gonna claim to be an expert or site owner or anything special, just a person using a touch of reason. Have you ever consideded that if you are downloading at unlimited bandwidth and limiting your upload YOU are the reason the torrent is slow. The swarm depends on everyone pulling their weight and not leeching or it slows down. Heck, I’ve even heard of trackers that limit the info they send you based on an optimistic algorithim that factors how much you are sharing versus how long you’ve been in the swarm (neat idea as it limits leeches to slower dls without effecting those more willing to “play well with others”). Either way, and whatever non-standard tracker code may or may not be running, I just wish people wouldn’t complain about dl speed while admitting to limiting their upload!!!!
I agree with the guy who said you are all morons.
lol my browser still errors, the it and nl don’t work for me x_x
That’s normal, since you both share the same brain.
eztvefnet.org is now pointing at a commercial site and not at the eztv we know and respect.
Whats happened to eztv.it and .nl they don’t work anymore, how do I get to our beloved (no login) EZTV site?
who gives a fuck anyway
Wow i still can’t find EZTV bothe the given ade\reses are not loadin Thanks eztv you are my tv rock
