    @1 Asshole.

    I like how the show is done now. With lots of graphics and less pure emphasis on the reader is good. Feels more professional. Glad Ashley has worked on her intonation and pronunciation as well. Its much clearer now. Good stuff. I wanna see those tats though!

    I liked the tutorial :D Didn’t think of that myself and its very useful. But the audio in it wasn’t so great. Please setup better acoustics for next time. It sounds very annoying – Like a shitty home video.

    Also didn’t realise you used a finnish company/group to do the audio. Good on you. Glad someone buys something else from my native land other than nokia phones.

    and again better than the last one (although i preferred outdoor interviews to an iphone tutorial …) but no more silent scenes is good. now for the next step TF: finding a more attractive host. srsly that’s what would increase your audience the most.

  • uggh

    the way she talks makes me want to jab a hot soldering iron in my ear.

    If you think that it sucks, why don’t you make one yourself to prove how better you are at it.

    I won the T-Shirt! Thanks guys. Got it today and will be sporting it tomorrow.

  • SomeGuy

    Awesome!

    Much, much better – not only does it sound and look better but Ashley gives us the slightest notion of her beautiful puppies. Not enough to distract yet just enough to make her look incredibly hot – if she hints at the tats next time, I’ll be a happy camper.

    Got a bit of a question to those responsible for distribution of the show. If you have a 200 megabyte 540p version available via rss feed, why did you put a regular, lower quality version on mininova?

    Please get a different host TorrentFreak!

    Wow, quite a highbrow crowd we got here… :/

  • sovath

    um, pretty informative, but the anchor chick finished every line with a weird uptone like she’s asking a question.

  • Anonymous

    “Like, why is everything she says, like a question like oh my gosh”

    Can we have a host that isn’t cross eyed and actually knows what they’re talking about. Why is she holding cards that she never looks it.

  • Jasper van Weerd

    It gets better and better, keep the listings on the end. Very good to have a look at it, while not waiting on the other content.

  • Thiseas

    I think it gets better with time. It’s a neat idea to have a proper show that talks about something that is considered SO BAD and underground by those who don’t know.
    Contrary to some comments I think she actually knows what she’s talking about.
    But Ashely, you have to lose that “moronic interogative” (as someone from somewhere I can’t remember from, very eloquently put it) tone.
    Thanks (for reading)

  • Thiseas

    got it: “moronic interrogative” coined by comedian Rory McGrath.

    “Backslash? Thats forward slash honey.”
    =-=-=-=-=

    Lol! I was wondering if anyone else would notice that little mistake.

    All in all, TorrentFreak TV just gets better and better!

    Keep making these — they are real “win!” :)

    you guys should really hire a good writer for these segments.

    …whoops! professional level writers don’t give two wet bowel movements about the freetard free lunch brigade!

    so you might have some trouble.

  • dare

    she’s easily attractive enough, but that VOICE…so many inflections and changing tones where they’re not supposed to be…

    IT REALLY MAKES it DIFFICULT to LISTEN TO

    Please be more NORMAL in your READINGS darling…I BEG YOU

  • TorrentFreak TV viewer

    Hmmm, why there is no news about the “EU/US Gov vs P2P”-situation? Maybe with some interviews?
    Maybe it could be also interesting to announce new versions of bittorrent / p2p cliënts…

    Exactly why do people need to be able to download torrents on their iStatus-Symbol?

  • RZ

    Thanks for the information

  • Ruslan

    Great work. The quality of the show improves episode after episode

  • Michael

    how many entrys? i understan 19 7 (nineteen seven), right?
    also only 197?

    can not be (i dont listen “one hundred ninety seven”)!
    Thanks for the number od entrys in advance!

  • Steve Brooks

    Brilliant :)

  • Holy SHIT

    Work on your speech biatch

  • name

    She should be at left because our eyes read left to right so they always end focusing right side where it should be the content, not the person.

  • Michael

    i think now: 97, right?
    but i listen a “n” before she say 7.

  • Happy Bunny

    I enjoyed it, thank you!

  • site owner

    Great :))) I love the show

  • Nea

    Great job Ashley! You’re improving still. Keep up the good job, just remember to work on your accent. ;)

  • Michael

    yes, i hope in the next show understand i the number of entrys.

  • Spurious

    Wow that's hard to listen to… If she's writing for herself, tell her to stop and focus on speaking. If someone's writing for her, fire them.

  • Rekrul

    She should let her hair down.
