It appears that ExtraTorrent has lost its primary domain name, Extratorrent.cc, but is still accessible through backups.
The domain name seems to have been disconnected by the registrar, Internet BS, according to a report coming from TorrentFreak, an excellent source for news about developments in the online copyright and piracy wars.
ExtraTorrent is a huge source for torrents online, second probably only to the notorious Pirate Bay in terms of visitors.
A WHOIS probe of ExtraTorrent.cc returns a status of "clienthold," typically associated with legal disputes, non-payment or domain deletion.
TorrentFreak notes that the site is still accessible through various backups, such as Extra.to.
