Despite the domain being on sale for over a week, there has been no news or discussion on the apparent end to the once all-powerful BitTorrent site, Suprnova.org. Nobody even noticed, and if they did, they decided the news was not worthy or reporting to the world.
It was not always this way, once upon a time SuprNova was as much part of BitTorrent as the client itself, serving up torrents to 420,000 unique visitors a day. Without question, the site revolutionised the dynamics of internet traffic.

It was sad to see the demise of Suprnova. BitTorrent never quite seemed the same again once it closed.

That is just it, it never really changed. A lot of people gave up on BT when Nova collapsed. But there were and still are a lot of good BT places that require no registration and have good quality torrents. They were just over shadowed by Nova.

And I kinda like being in the shadows
