In a month The Pirate Bay will no longer offer downloads of .torrent files. Instead, the largest torrent site on the Internet will only provide so-called magnet links to its visitors. The first step in this direction was made today with The Pirate Bay replacing the current default torrent download links with magnets. Could this be the end of an era? After half a decade of loyal service, The Pirate Bay shut down its tracker in November 2009. The Pirate Bay argued that BitTorrent trackers have been made redundant by technologies such as DHT and PEX. In addition, The Pirate Bay team said that they might move away from torrents entirely and switch to offering magnet links instead.

“We’re talking to the other torrent admins on doing magnet links and DHT and PEX for all sites. Moving away from torrents and trackers totally – like pick a date and all agree ‘from this date, we’ll not support torrents anymore’,” a Pirate Bay insider told TorrentFreak at the time. Now, two years later, that date is coming soon. Today, The Pirate Bay made the first step towards this new future by making magnets the default download links instead of torrents. TorrentFreak was further informed that in “a month or so” the largest torrent site on the Internet will stop serving torrent files indefinitely.

The announcement is bound to lead to confusion and uncertainty among many torrent users, but in reality very little will change for the average Pirate Bay visitor. Users will still be able to download files, but these will now be started through a magnet link instead of a .torrent file. The Pirate Bay team told TorrentFreak that one of the advantages of the transition to a “magnet site” is that it requires relatively little bandwidth to host a proxy. This is topical, since this week courts in both Finland and the Netherlands ordered local Internet providers to block the torrent site.

Perhaps even better, without the torrent files everyone can soon host a full copy of The Pirate Bay on a USB thumb drive, which may come in handy in the future. One of the potential downsides of using magnets is that it could take a bit longer for downloads to start, especially if there are relatively few people sharing a file. The good news is that all mainstream BitTorrent clients support magnet links.

Mobile phone unlocking has grown in popularity over the years and consumers are taking advantage of the benefits. Business travelers’ use unlocked phones to avoid expensive roaming charges and the average consumer appreciates the simplicity of freely using any wireless network provider of their choice.

Frequently consumers ask, “Is mobile phone unlocking legal?”

Yes! Mobile phone unlocking is completely legal. In fact, laws exist that make it nearly impossible to prohibit the phone unlocking process. Manufacturing companies maintain that greater network flexibility will result in degraded service or anti competitive pricing so they bundle locked phones with exclusive network providers. This claim has been disproven over the years.

Greater network flexibility is sought to eliminate roaming charges. This increases marketability because unlocked phones can be easily recycled and bought or sold at higher rates. FastGSM unlocking technology supports over 5000 models worldwide including the latest Samsung and Sony Ericsson Xperia X8, Xperia X10 and Xperia X10 mini models or even the X10 mini pro, arc, pro, neo V, neo, PLAY, mini pro, mini, active, ray, Live with Walkman and W8 Walkmann.

The Holiday Gift season comes early from our friends at Sumo Lounge. The team at Sumo was kind enough to offer me a Sultan to review, and this item definitely does not disappoint. The box arrived a lot smaller then the item size which was perfect, because I don’t know how I would have fit it through my door way at 54×54. After I took it out of the box it took a little while for the item to expand to it’s full size, this only took around 1-2 hours.

Once the item was ready to go I began running it through the standard tests, long sessions of Skyrim and MW3 check, run through of Cowboys vs Aliens check. The item felt great while watching a movie and offered great back support as well as molded to my body. During gaming it was comfortable but would have been nice to have a bit more upright back support but that is where Sumo Lounge also offers an item that solves this the Sumo Sway.

After both of the standard tests I fell asleep briefly on the Sultan and I have to say it was definitely a comfy nap! All in all this item is a great value at $249, four color choices and two fabrics as well as free shipping it is a great alternative to the standard couch or chair. So show that you care about your loved ones this Holiday season and give them the gift of comfort.

If you’ll excuse me I have some lounging to do.
