The tables below only include Curated General Movie and TV Trackers, as comparisons stop being meaningful at a certain point. To be included in the comparison they need to meet the following criteria:
- International Content: Trackers that focus on specific languages or countries of origin for the content allowed on the site are excluded (for example AZ, ABN, and TS).
- Slot System: Trackers that allow unlimited releases per title to coexist would skew the results too much (for example TL, SP, and FNP).
- No Specific Niche: Trackers that focus on a specific niche within the broader category of Movies or TV are also excluded (for example KG, CG, and AB).
I have only included trackers that are widely considered Top and Mid tier in this subreddit. If you think a tracker should be on this list you can let me know in the comments. It should have at least as many Movie torrents as ANT or at least as many TV torrents as BLU, while also meeting all the other criteria. Please include the relevant stats.
For both Movie and TV I've ranked the trackers by the number of torrents. While I think unique titles are arguably more consistent for a direct comparison between trackers, HDB and MTV don't display that info, which prevents me from ranking the trackers this way.
Movies
| Movie Torrents | Movie Unique Titles | |
|---|---|---|
| PTP | 1043K | 386K |
| HDB | 272K | - |
| BHD | 239K | 93K |
| ATH | 174K | 85K |
| BLU | 174K | 83K |
| ANT | 141K | 75K |
| MTV | 82K | - |
TV
| TV Torrents | TV Unique Titles | |
|---|---|---|
| BTN | 536K | 52K |
| HDB | 129K | - |
| BHD | 110K | 23K |
| MTV | 110K | - |
| ATH | 89K | 20K |
| TVV | 88K | 22K |
| BLU | 79K | 20K |
Combined
| Movie + TV Torrents | |
|---|---|
| PTP | 1043K |
| BTN | 536K |
| HDB | 401K |
| BHD | 349K |
| ATH | 263K |
| BLU | 254K |
| MTV | 200K |
| ANT | 141K |
| TVV | 88K |
What really stands out in this comparison is the enormous gap between PTP and BTN above the rest. For this reason I think they exist in a tier of their own. HDB is the undisputed #3, however, in this comparison they are much closer to any of the other trackers than they are to PTP and BTN. That being said, this is only one way of comparing trackers and it should by no means be used as an absolute ranking for how good trackers are.
Another thing that stood out to me was how close all of these trackers are in terms of unique TV titles (besides BTN). I don't know the numbers for HDB and MTV but I'd expect them to be not too far off either. Though, for older content there is still a higher chance of finding it on TVV than on the other trackers with similar stats.
