Eight Years, 200,000 Members BitTorrent Seeders Rewarded Vote for Live Trax! Live Trax 14: LeRoi's Final Show DMB Live Setlist: Now for Android |
Five Years Later; BitTorrent Goes Live
Posted by Matthew Yette in antsmarching.org Site News at 12:00am on Tuesday, Jan 9th, 2007Over the five years of AntsMarching.org's existence, we've been home to some of the most exciting features to be found in an online community. Personal Tour Stats, Setlist Games, Venue/City/State Trends, Mobile Setlists, Mobile News, and countless other features make AntsMarching.org the premier fan-run music-based site on the Internet. One of these features, the Download Server, has been missing for over two years. While the convenience and speed of that resource was something that is still unmatched two years later, other methods of digital trading have cropped up, namely BitTorrent.
Last year, for our fourth anniversary, we rolled out an extensive update to the core of the website, Tour Central v2. On our fifth birthday, we again wanted to give the community something special. AntsMarching.org has embraced the concept of BitTorrent, and we've integrated a Tracker into the site for our members. The Tracker integrates into the Discussion Forum, and can also be accessed by way of our revamped Download Area. Those curious about how to get started should read our BitTorrent FAQ.
The DMB Community has been built around the concept of freely sharing and spreading the music. BitTorrent embraces this concept, and top AntsMarching.org Seeders will find themselves on the receiving end of random prizes and other perks yet to be revealed. So what are you waiting for? Jump on the torrents and enjoy the music! And thanks for five great years of the best DMB community around.
