Mininova hits 8 billionth download Just 14 months after reaching 4 billion downloads the popular torrent site Mininova has announced that they have hit another milestone; 8 billion torrent downloads by its users.

The site was launched in January 2005, and is currently in the top 50 for most visited sites on the entire Internet. Users download over 10 million torrents per day, and growth does not appear to be slowing.

TorrentFreak adds that growth from emerging markets such as India has been exponential, especially as more and more Indians gain broadband Internet access.
