ANNOUNCEMENT: Mixtapes are BACK!

This announcement is to let everyone know what's going on at MixtapeTorrent.com. As many of you already know downloads were disabled 6 days ago on the 18th. This was done because the torrent tracker that hosted the mixtapes shut down.

So what we've done is created our own tracker that will now host the mixtapes. This way no outside influences can affect our mixtape network, we'll have complete control over the tracker so sharing of mixtapes won't be interrupted again. This also allows members to upload their own mixtapes! This will greatly increase the diversity of our mixtape selection.

All of this has led to some changes at MixtapeTorrent.com, here they are in detail:

a) There is now 2 mixtape categories, the Mixtape Directory & Mixtape Torrents . The Mixtape Directory category is a resource for Mixtape cover art, track lists & mixtape descriptions. The Mixtape Torrents category will list the mixtapes that you can download with your BitTorrent client.

b) All DVDs & Music Videos have been removed. The main reason this was done is because we will no longer allow commercial DVDs (such as "Beef", or any DVD that is available for purchase at a retailer). This is to protect us. We're in this for the long run and don't want to risk being shutdown. So for now on the only DVDs allowed at MixtapeTorrent.com will be Bonus DVDs (such as those that come with CDs) or any DVD that isn't commercially available. Music videos are STILL allowed, but we will be starting over in that category.

c) Now on to the new mixtape torrent tracker...the URL is www.MixFiend.com . I've created an uploading guide to show everyone not familiar with creating torrents how to share their mixtapes. It's a step-by-step guide with screenshots to make it super easy, located here: How To UPLOAD

I urge all of our members and guests who are able to share mixtapes to help us break in the new tracker, let's get that place poppin'!

So that's that...it's going to take some time to rebuild and get back to where we were a few weeks ago but once we do we'll have more mixtapes than we've ever had :)

Peace!
