TextbookTorrents.com is a torrent website specializing in providing textbooks
Title
Textbook Torrents - The Free Textbook Tracker
Description
A site dedicated to ripping books (scanning them to create a softcopy) and sharing them online via Peer-to-Peer networks, primarily through its own torrent tracker.
The site has a core of dedicated workers, but relies heavily on contributions, both monetary and otherwise, from the people who benefit from the sites services.
You can help contribute to the 'cause' by scanning books and uploading them to the site.
TextbookTorrents.com stands on fairly shaky legal ground, and was shut down for a prolonged period in recent days.
Nevertheless, it continues to function, and even to flourish, as do many other legally-iffy file-sharing sites dedicated to music, movies, and just about everything else.
Excerpted from the website:
- In just 33 hours we have collected the extra $120 needed to secure our hosting plan. To everyone who donated, thank you. Any donations received from now on will be put toward our next bill in 3 months - another €180. So if you find you have too much money sitting around, don't hesitate to chuck it in the jar.
