The Return of a BitTorrent Legend!
Im very tired but i just saw this article before i was about to power down my computer and thought it important enough to post. I might edit this post to include more info in the morning but for now here is a little snippit for the original article. Visit TorrentFreak for the full story! The anti-piracy organisations must have thought they had buried this site for good back in 2004 but its not going to be a very good week for them when it goes live again for the first time in 2 and a half years especially with the TPB crew involved.
‘The legendary BitTorrent site Suprnova.org will be back in action soon. Sloncek, the former owner of suprnova.org decided to donate the domain to The Pirate Bay lads, who will relaunch the site in a few days, staying true to its original design. The return of a Legend.’

This is going to be another era where torrent files will still dominate the internet.
I love Suprnova and TPB. CAn’t wait for the cool community to be back again.
Never heard of supernova.
I was there about half way through suprnova’s life, it was an amazing torrent site, few today can rival the ease and greatness of suprnova.
well, well, well. suprnova is back. return of a legend indeed.
site not working … redirect to some shit
aw jeah, suprnova was the shit. although i now use usenet, i wouldn’t mind downloading from there for nostalgia’s sake
James, it was a very long time ago. I barely visited the site myself before it was shut down.
And cyber, it will be up in a few days says the post.
I’m happy about this. The more, the merrier!
ahhh back in the day…
btjunkie.org will always be better though…
was the best back in the day, but i think there will always be the chance for any of these site’s to go down tho, so it’s all just a matter of who satys up
I would expect this to be an industry sting operation if it weren’t being hosted by TPB. If it is indeed hosted there, it’s probably legit.
I don’t do torrents anymore, but Suprnova was the shit.
They got pwnd by riaa/mpaa and I will not trust them, they could be working for the enemy.
It’s always good to see a old friend come back. Too bad we cant see more of these original sites come back
Do u not think its risky to download of it when its back up,supernova has been busted 1 time they will be keeping an eye on them or am i wrong ?
Holy shit do any of you read???? He said that the domain was give to the pirate bay guys, and if you know the pirate bay then you know they don’t give a shit about the RIAA/MPAA.
So what will the difference be between Suprnova and TPB besides the name ?
The site is not back. The name is…
The people who were involved in the past will probably stay out.
Isn’t this just a scam to raise the price for the domain name?

wAHOO! i remember this from 2004, lol !
I sold my house and car, divorced my wife, put my children up for adoption, killed my cat and dog, took my parent’s pension and life savings, shot two men, lived in a garbage can… to be with supernova.
Just as supernova told me when it walked away: “I will be late, don’t stay up and wait for me”
Bad torrents for life,
we fly together we die together.
the scene prevails once again. I’ll be awaiting suprnova’s return~
MININOVA HAS STRONGER AURA.
Supernova and the guys from Pirate Bay…. what a combination.
Cann’t wait to see what they do.
MEEEEKKK
Niiiiiiice News Shiny , you’ve made my day … holy fuck Suprnova is baaaackk yeah baby rock ooonnn!
It “was” the best site for tracking torrents if your into that kinda thing. But what made it the shit was the community that backed it. It will be the community that makes or breaks it this time too b/c word is that it will be index only. IMHO the only way that this works is b/c TPB is at the wheel. Good luck guys!
@40thousandREMs(13) that is one of the more ignorant things I’ve heard lately. First off MPAA/RiAA didn’t have anything to do with the seizure of the suprnova servers in Slovenia. That was all the work of RetSpan (French equivalent). Second “Sloncek” (not sure what his real name is) was never charged and case was dropped years ago. So he doesn’t have the motive to be a narc.
I like newtorrents.info now. But another site is welcomed

MININOVA HAS STRONGER AURA.
Where do you think all this sites with “nova” in the end take their name???
fuck bittorrent, ftp and usenet. if u like swimming with sharks, ddl rulez the roost.
P.S who remembers the day when everyone sold off their mother to slavery to buy Download Accelerator Plus (DAP) to optimise and resume downloads from your 56K modem…speaking of which, why do they still put them into laptops?
surpnova had everything, and it was hard to find anything…
if the rumors were correct, 8% of world’s traffic at some point was from torrents that were found on suprnova.
Isn’t that nice?
Well.. that was rediculous back then. I’d rather stick to a few websites that care about every torrent they put up. It would be nice to see MPAA attack a big fry for once, again.
Although I h8 to see TPB being so cocky about what they do.. Eventually something bad will happen to them, and it will be a very sad day…
@the rage you would be surprised how may times I have used the 56k modem in my laptop because a lot of people don’t have dsl or cable so it still comes in handy if you need driver or small program because there is always a phone line. I started using torrents in 2004 so I will be interested in seeing this site.
I loved Supernova. It was the first torrent site I went to find something. Everything was broke up into convenient categories, including Asians films, sci-fi and anime.
I saw so many Shaw Bros. films because of them. Now that the site will be hosted in Switzerland along side Pirate Bay, there will be no stopping it.
Bring on the content and the easy to use nav. system again. All hail the king.
Like someone said previously, this is the site that everyone copied “nova” from, including Mininova. The rookies are ignorant of this fact.
I m waiting for the day when rlslog shuts down…………….
that won’t happen. Rlslog is just providing info. No torrents or trackers are kept on its servers. Sorry.
i know that but still i want this shit to shutdown………………
and why are you here enigma, go back to limewire your drone.
Ahhh, bring back memory … dont know how many site I been that got shutdown
.
.
Speaking of limewire o_O … I never like it lolz .
Anyone remember Audio Galaxy (which is owned by Real network, now called Rhapsody ~_~). That was the sh1t back then O_O for p2P that is
anyone remember the site Donkax? that’s the first site i remember using for torrents
look forward to the return of suprnova
Suprnova was the very first torrent site i used in 2002 and i used to use shadows experimental as my torrent prog.. i got my very first anti-virus from there (norton lol) and because i used to use Kazaa before torrent it cleaned over 250 viruses and couldnt remove another 300 lmao.
Well, you learn from your mistakes
@the rage it is also for fax purpose.
strange that on this today, the featured article of the day on wikipedia is a supernova – haha, crazy!

This is the work of the TPB crew, the reason for the domain parking page is quite simple. The news leaked prematurely.
Damn.. SPAM alert on the Panasonic cam thread above!
Damn, that’s some good news! Suprnova was about thè heaviest shit concerning torrents! This could be very very awesome, the guys from The Pirate Bay are trust worthy
Suprnova made torrents so public that people without computers were talking about it. Suprnova helped ruin the torrent scene and don’t you forget it.
But since it got us here, I couldn’t think of a better team to run it
“The rookies are ignorant of this fact.”
Actually the rookies are ignorant of the damage the suprnova explosion caused and most forget how bad suprnova really was, it was a great wealth of torrents don’t get me wrong, but you wanna talk about fake, bad and infected torrents? suprnova takes the cake.
TPB is the only group that I can see making suprnova work.

They still put those modems in them laptops ,so they can ,,,,,make you pay that extra 50bucks and tell you this laptops is so xmas
@[ENE]: well, the scene has nothing to do with it.
“The anti-piracy organisation’s must of thought”
1. organisations*
You do not pluralize with apostrophes. Ever.
2. must have*
“must of” is just wrong.
to all of you tools that posted smack about suprnova…. stay away from it.. we dont need your crummy comments – asshats
im glad to see that its coming back though, it really shouldnt have ever left seeing as though its just a link site… but whatever
hooray! dont tell your freinds – lets keep this one a secret
oh.. and who in here is using waste?
wow thats very freaky. the wikipedia article is that just a coincidence or some sorta sign? i guess u can take it anyway you want to.
isohunt.com for all your torrent searches. It indexes more than 100 torrent sites
if you don’t want to download fakes, DO NOT DOWNLOAD FROM ISOHUNT, people can’t leave comments so you can’t be warned!!!
mininova is okay…but it kinda sucks
torrentspy is a bit better…but i guess they log traffic now
pirate bay is good…but it kinda sucks
DEMONOID is by far the most organized and trustworthy, beats suprnva down!!!1
I hate the pirate bay, they’re so damn political. I mean, who cares about whether it should be legal or no? I’m here to download, not listen to people whining about laws. Thus I use mininova, which is lots bigger than TPB and has less downtime.
Anyways. Time will tell if the ‘new’ supr will be any good.
http://WWW.RLSLOG.NET will always be better for ME
Rite on… Supernova.. the site that introduced me to the wonderful world of torrents.. Since it was shut down there was a special space on my harddrive only mininova could fill… And now it’s triumphant return.. thanks rlslog you’ve made my day and you’ll still be the site I check everyday!
http://WWW.HYPOH.COM is the best ever!!!!
I prefer to use private sites, I always get the most trusted gear no viruses and the latest stuff, I would recommend joining one if you ever get the chance.
http://www.demonoid.com owns rlslog.net and Mininova. Too many torrents on Mininova require registration, and NewTorrents.info is way, way too slow. Plus I got spyware from a bunch of fake torrents here last month.
Demonoid is private, fast, secure and there’s no fuckwits like there is here.
Now, if also sharereactor.com would come back then we can relive the good old days again.
Well….wts so special abt supernova….everything depends upon seeds and leechs
yea. but suprnova introduced alot of us to the world. it was an amazing site. i only have the privledge of using it for about 1 yr and 1/2 before i took break and came back to find it had been taken down.
now demonoid needs to come back
