History of Torrentz.Eu 

Founded in 15th July 2003 by someone names Flippy ( A Finland Based meta-search Engine)

After 6 years of successful operation in November 2008, scammers used some fake papers to take over torrentz.com and as a backup torrentz.com admins move on to the torrentz.eu and after 18th Dec due to seizure of torrentz.com domain, torrentz.eu became the default domain. 

Popularity of Torrentz.eu touched the highest. And it became the second popular torrent website in 2012 and again in 2015.

Although torrentz.eu had faced a lot of legal actions in it's life time. In 2013  a DMCA claim was sent to Google by Paramount Pictures to remove Torrentz homepage however, site admins counter claimed about the site's links that  no copyright policy was infringed. 

On 26th May 2014 Torrentz.eu was suspended without a court order ( requested from the Police Intellectual Property Crime Unit) 

On 27th May 2014 Torrentz was back online and with it's three alternate domains (.me .ch .in) it had planned to continue on at that time in case of primary domain seizure.

On 4th August 2016 , website  had became inactive showing the message 'Torrentz was a free, fast and powerful meta-search engine combining results from dozens of search engines'. The last message which is displayed to people.

Final Verdict about Torrentz Shut Down

After a Decade of warning people and torrent sites admin agencies seemed to take strict actions against all the copyright violators by taking down popular torrent websites and their alternate domains. 

And it's a good new to all the content creators, programmers, producers as they were facing a big loss because of these torrent websites. 

And after all this we 'The Citizens ' must understand that; as there is a lot hard work and hard minds in creating those content, which is just downloaded easily on these torrent websites. 

As of now a lot of torrent websites had been taken down, but still if there are some; then do ask yourself 

"Will I create that application or content for free ?"

With these words give a sweet Farewell to your favourite Torrentz.eu and Programmers and Content creators enjoy the Party.
