As this site is drawing to a close. I want to find a site that is similar to this. I miss all animedao vidstream and more. Its so hard I like downloading videos to watch. As like nyaa torrents burns my phones battery. Id like to ask everyone to help for a site I can download videos while not being overclutered and ad rattled like the others. Thank you and I hope this site would get an extention instead of me suffering to find a new site. My Life is in a mess already these shows help me thoguh it. Collage I can't find a major I like nor the time to look for it takeing care of life. With all this I thank you for reading this.
Many who search for free anime would love to be able to afford the good stuff. Just being given an old windows 10 or Mac to replace their XP or 7 machine would be a huge plus.
Regardless of your opinions on iptv servers and iptv boxes you are obviously serious about security. If I were you I look to get a firewall router. Trust me you wont regret it. I can do things with my firewall router I couldn't dream of with any other router Ive ever owned in 36 years on the net.
Ive always bought nice routers but they aren't even in the same hemisphere as a firewall router. I considered Netgate but went with Firewalla. Id like to have a Firewalla Gold Pro but really dont need a $900 firewall router.
My $600 Nighthawk has a ton of options but now its being used as an ap router in my network. I have 2 ap routers running behind my Firewalla.
Im running Bitdefender Total Security on my devices but they are blocking what my have intruded into the network. The firewall router blocks anything and everything I choose. I can even set it to to block all traffic except traffic that I set in a lost to allow. Firewall routers are the best network security you can get period.
I also have no TV bill. I download my media to big hard drives and run a media server, and can stream them with safe, well trusted media server clients. No shady Chinese spyware android boxes required. I also don't need to worry about a shady service that offers "free" TV and pirated streaming media inevitably going under one day. I own what I've downloaded, have full control over it, and don't need to worry about it disappearing on me.
I don't get TV but that's irrelevant to me as live TV is essentially useless in 2026. If I ever need to tune into the news they have free live streams.
Not upset in the slightest. Why would I be? I have no tv bill and get every channel in the country as well as all the streaming services. Im happy as hell. I was paying like $140 a month for tv prior. Now $0. Also the quality is just fine. Not sure what the quality comment was. Everything is 1080p and 720p with some 4k too.
The way I see it if you choose to keep the bills because you are paranoid its your loss. I was just offering an option for others if they want to look into it. I used jailbrojen cable boxes, hacked satellite cards, hacked fta satellite boxes etc. Nothing happened then either.
This is a pirate site. Doesn't make sense to engage in pirating yet worry about being spied on.
Lol. Its called knowing what you are doing with networking. The government and cellphone companies track everything we do anymore. You can help fight it by using tor and a VPN if you are that worried about it. Maybe you should give up on technology completely if your paranoia is that bad. I haven't had any problems with my network.
Most of its paranoia fron people who dont understand how the service works. Its based on a peer to peer system to reduce server strain so everyone uses data. If you are worried you can create a private network on an app router just for the vseebox or superbox. A better option woulf be to buy a firewall router. Im using a Firewalla Purple and have two Firewalla Orange coming. You can block any incoming or outgoing attempts you want or even limit the amount of data released with a firewall router.
I haven't had a virus on my network in 30 years. That said if someone truly wants in any of our networks bad enough there is no way we could stop them. If people can get into NASA and other highly secure government servers they can can get into any private server if they choose to.
I have had zero issues with these boxes. As long as you have a good understanding of networking you are worried over nothing. Could it change at some point? Sure but it hasn't yet and these boxes have bern around for Luke 6 years. Millions of people around the world are using Chinese brand TP Link routers which are well known to have major security holes. Even Netgear, Asus, Linksys, etc. Are exploitable. Galaxy phones had Chinese Spyware on them for a couple years before it was found and removed.
As long as you keep up with latest networking exploits world news and have an actual understanding of running a safe network you are fine. Personally as long as my network is secure I dont care anymore who knows what Im doing. I gave up on that paranoia long ago. I was worried about that shit for years but unless you give up the net and tech entirely and go live off the grid someone is always spying on you so no point worrying about it and just practice safe networking.

Hi Admin, why am I getting 403 Forbidden error while trying to download "Subtitles: All Attachments" from any latest releases? Separate downloads (i.e. one language at a time) are OK. Fix this please, TA :)
yeah i can do that too, it's called downloading torrents from Nyaa and AnimeBytes, and then hosting a Plex server! best part is, I don't need to pay for a shitty sketchy Chinese android box.
I can get pretty much any anime series released on my Vseebox but getting the subtitles for the series though is hit or miss. Same with dubs. Can't complain though considering I get everything else possible.
I suggest every media pirate add Vseebox and Superbox communities to everyone's Reddit favorites. They are similar to the illegal paid iptv streaming sites but different and much better.
Thanks admin. Has a good long run. Will miss the site. I've enjoyed a lot of forums come and go since the mid 90s. Yours has been the best Ive used for direct downloads
Right, and if I'm not mistaken, the admin said that when the time comes, they'll also try to see about posting the backend code so that whoever is interested in creating a successor site like this can use as the backend, especially in regards to connecting to said torrents that are posted and processing them for the DDL route which I'm guessing many of us who don't do torrent will still be able to do after this site's operation shuts down.
So the user never actually posted any legit torrent. Torrents currently on the user's listing are before May 2017, so would've been imported from NyaaTorrents.
I did find five comments posted (again, Nyaa.si data only):
So it doesn't look like the account was ever used much at Nyaa.si. I imagine the 'trusted' status and the fact old torrents got assigned to the account was coordinated via discussions elsewhere. I'm guessing the user didn't care much for their account, so maybe it got compromised via password reuse or similar.
But it certainly does give a lot of credit to the hacked account theory.
Yes, one user who had a trusted account died in 2018 and had suddenly started to uploaded fake releases, a few weeks ago. Either some one who knew them sold the account, the password was used elsewhere or their info got leaked.
It's a really trivial matter. The viruses they spread require at least an older version of Windows to infect them, and Windows 7, 8, 10, and 11 can prevent them.
Even try to install, it won't happen unless they remove the windef
the recent virus posting boom is mostly users getting hacked
Is there anything to back up that theory? To me, it doesn't look like accounts got "hacked". The user had never uploaded anything previously, has never posted a comment, and this applies to Nyaa's sukebei site.
All users that have posted malware on Nyaa share the same pattern (if I recall correctly).
A lot of sites impose restrictions on new users, so I've noticed that spammers often register accounts months or years before doing anything with them. My hunch is that these Nyaa malware posters are just sleeper accounts.
There of course could be other possibilities, like your hacked accounts theory, or accounts being sold etc, but they seem unlikely to me considering the amount of effort required. Sleeper accounts can be automated, and I've seen it play out on sites like Anidex.
people be doing everything except stopping pressurising AT admin to give away his precious property and developing an alternative by joining hands. If you cannot develop yourself, just fucking wait. It's piracy, it won't disappear. (I am definitely not hinting that we are working one, and it will probably be announced in a month or so... :D)
It's clear the admins haven't actively moderated the site in a while, but the recent virus posting boom is mostly users getting hacked, which is entirely their fault imo.
"I also don't intend to hand over control of AT to someone else - I encourage anyone who wishes to manage a service like this to do so under their own name and terms. Thus I believe a shutdown to be the best course of action."
Funny how so many relied on some one else good will for so long and never planned for its removal.

All good things must come to an end, especially to allow new things to be born and grow. Thank you admin for providing a great site for so many years. The usenet posts will remain long after the site is gone, so your contributions will continue to benefit anime lovers for many more years. I wish you the best in your future endeavors, and I'm sure the best will happen to you with all the good karma you built up running this site for all of us ;)
Admin. please let us know if you change your mind in transforming the site in a comunity or delegating it to others. As you may see there are alot of people pleading for the site service.
Admin, if anyone expresses interest in taking the site over from you, please do whatever you can to help them do so. This is especially important now that all the XDCC bots (Arutha Foundation bots and Ginpachi Sensei) that were hosting new releases are now permanently down. If Anime Tosho goes down and there's nothing to replace it, all of our eggs will be in one basket: torrents. It's vital that we have an alternative option to torrents in DDLs. Anime Tosho going down wouldn't be as huge of a deal if the XDCC bots didn't also just permanently go down, but here we are, and this is a big deal.

Thank You, admin. I have appreciated you for around 15 years now and am grateful for what you have done for the community. I am one of the "groups" you grabbed.
You can find dumps of the attachment metadata here. Attachments are stored individually as .xz files. I'm planning to bundle them up somehow as a final dump, after updates stop.
commenttf.7z=common ttf, like dont put the fonts multiple times in but cut them out of the mkv attatchments 7zs and bundle them so each file is packaged only once... relatoons=relations (like which attatchment file is related to which name, magnetlink, url (nyaa/tt))
so maybe also a good idea to bundle multiple mkvattatchments under one 7z so it can compress away common style stuff and thereby reduce more size, but put an list next to the 7z with its content (like filename.7z_l.xz)
maybe strip the big ttf (font) files from the rest and just keep a txt file of removed attachments, recompress the remains and bundel them all to a big torrent and share it (maybe wth a commenttf.7z next to it) together with an xz of the relevant relatoons (csv)...
i am very sad that you are ending your grate service, but thanks for doing his for 15 years, i hope someone will take up the torch and keep running (maybe youll still find a suitable suppressor to hand all of it over to).
In the meantime it would be good if you could bundle a package of all the attatchment/subtitie package including database relevant dump or csv lists of all your attachpks (like https://animetosho.torrentbay.st/storage/attachp...hments.7z) so they can be archived and hosted somewhere else. Its one thing when a torrent goes out of seeds but when it had some important subs you could always go here and get them and put them together with another video file, so this is imho one of the most important features of AT ;)
