tomturd Posted October 3, 2012 Report Share Posted October 3, 2012 Someone in work showed me this last night. http://put.io: a service that gives you 1gb of free space. It downloads torrents for you, and then you download the files from your browser when they're finished. http://movies.io: a torrent search thing that integrates with put.io. The process: Sign up with both Link your movies.io account to your put.io account On movies.io, search for a recent torrent Click the 'download to put.io' button Login to put.io and find the torrent/file Download or play in your browser. The great thing about this is that if the torrent has been downloaded by a put.io user in the past (very likely if its a recent movie), then it'll show up in your account instantly, no waiting for it, and you can download it immediately. On top of that, theres a put.io plugin for XBMC which lets you stream your put.io files straight to your TV. PS obviously only download legal stuff. These are my views and nothing to do with TF Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JD™ Posted October 3, 2012 Report Share Posted October 3, 2012 That sounded completely unnecessary to me until you mentioned the XBMC bit, would be pretty handy when the girlfriend decides she wants to watch something she forgot to bring the DVD of from her place...

tomturd Posted October 3, 2012 Author Report Share Posted October 3, 2012 The "instant" bit is the best bit really, no waiting. Literally took about 30 seconds to find the file on movies.io, click 'download with put.io', refresh xbmc put.io plugin, play film! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
