OfflineBay

The Pirate Bay is widely considered the best BitTorrent website, home to large quantities of downloadable content accessible through torrents. If you frequently get your torrents from this website, then you might be interested in OfflineBay.

OfflineBay is a simple-to-use desktop client for The Pirate Bay, which allows you to look up torrents by keywords, explore the list of results, and quickly locate the torrents you want to download.

Its name points out only the fact that it gives you the possibility to run torrent searches offline. You still need an active Internet connection to be able to not only download torrents but also update the database.

Installing the program isn't necessary since you can unzip the downloaded archive and double-click the .exe to reach the main window right away. It's not possible to run searches right away because you have to first update the dump file. This might take a while, depending on the size of the dump as well as quality of your internet connection. On the other hand, you should know that this takes a toll on your disk space.

The list of search results includes the name of the torrent, date of addition, and torrent size. You can open its magnet link right away or copy it, copy the torrent's hashsum, or perform a Google search to find out more info about a specific torrent.

The dump updating process is performed automatically because OfflineBay connects to its internal server and does everything on its own. But it's also possible to import dumps from offline .csv.gz files - https://thepiratebay.org/static/dump/csv/ As far as other options are concerned, you can view and update all trackers, pick another theme for the interface, create a Windows shortcut to OfflineBay, or change the default URL for updating trackers.

Taking everything into account, OfflineBay provides a simple solution for The Pirate Bay users to locate their favorite torrents without having to turn to a web browser. It's fast, easy to use and gets the job done.
