The Demise of RARBG: Exploring Alternatives and Magnet Links.
The shutdown of RARBG, a popular torrent site, has had a significant impact on the piracy ecosystem. Other torrent sites are seeing a slowdown in fresh content, automated download apps are starting to throw up errors, and many of the largest streaming sites are missing a key source of content. RARBG acted as a key bridge between scene sources and the public at large, and its absence is likely to make the overall piracy ecosystem more vulnerable. While others could take its place, the loss of RARBG is undoubtedly a considerable setback.
