Extratorrent is one of the most popular torrents sites and ranks under top 10 torrent websites. This success didn’t go unnoticed by rights holders groups such as the MPAA who recently called out ExtraTorrent as one of the top pirate sites. The site was forced to trade in its .com domain for .cc this year, after it was suspended by its domain registrar.
As this is developing story, we will update it soon as we get more updates on this.
