PassThePopcorn

Introduction

In recent years, a large number of torrent users have been inclined towards being a part of a prestigious torrent group that accepts only a limited number of members. These groups are data mines with hundreds of TBs of data and in many cases several Petabytes.

Today, we’re reviewing a popular torrent tracking site called PassThePopCorn. Keep reading because, by the end of this review, you’ll drive home with some valuable information.

What is PassThePopCorn?

PassThePopCorn or PTP is one of the popular private trackers for free indie movies and tv shows. It is well in contention for the biggest private free indie movie-based torrent group on the internet. It has tons of uploaded torrents that are accessible to over 36,000 registered members. PTP is filled with amazing free indie movies from around the world. You’ll find classic free indie titles right under a recent hit. If you just wish to sort free indie content based upon your preference, it also allows you to do so.

What should you expect from PassThePopCorn?

Dedicated Content Sorting: You can access any file you want within a single click. Just click on the movie torrent, it’ll take you to an inner page where you’ll find all the details – Name, Resolution, File Size, Ratings, Seeds, Leeches, and Uploader. Though you cannot sort the free indie content by just clicking on the table header, you have a separate sorting menu that can help arrange free indie content as per your preference. For instance, if you just want to download Ultra High Definition Torrents, you can choose the option in the sorting menu.

Interactive Community – PassThePopCorn has a max cap of 40,000 users. Out of these, more than 36,500 are active users. Each day more than 12,000 users are active which means that 33% of the community is active on any given day. Similarly, more than 65% of the members are active each week and about 84.55% active each month.

Bonus Points – Most of the private tracking torrent sites are highly interactive. Users don’t sit as passive members are always interacting. A benefit of being interactive is that you can win lots of bonus points. Just follow the system, and you’ll be able to achieve good standing within the community. There are tasks such as being part of an upload contest each month, buying invites, etc, which boost your position in the group.

Golden Popcorn – When the mods at PTP pick a newly uploaded free indie content, it is referred to as a Golden Popcorn. This particular torrent means a user can freeleech for the first 24 hours. In addition to that, a user can also achieve bonus points by seeding as long as possible. The more you seed the free indie content, the better the bonus you’ll receive.

Is PassThePopCorn safe?

For a torrent site to be safe for browsing, it needs to have an SSL certificate, which PassThePopCorn does have. Secondly, you can use tools such as SEOQuake and MOZ to check the reliability of a domain. Based on my research, PTP has a domain score of 11 and a trust score of 31 which makes it a dicey website if you were to judge by the number. Any website with DS and TS above 20 and 30 respectively might be considered worth checking out. However, PassThePopCorn doesn’t seem to pass the standard set by search engine giants.

PassThePopCorn in numbers

PTP draws massive numbers. It can very well be the most popular private torrent tracker site if we were to judge by numbers. It draws more than 1.68 million users a month. An average session on this site lasts for more than 18 minutes with an average page/visit being 3.83. Other than that, a cool testimony of a great user experience lies in its commendable bounce rate of 42.69%

You can check the Alexa ranking for any site to understand their popularity on the internet. As per those rankings, PTP is ranked at #19,400 which makes it amongst the top 20,000 websites on the internet. Though it has been through a rough patch like every private torrent tracking site, it has managed to push through those periods and in the process ended up becoming one of the most popular and beloved private torrent communities.

How to access PassThePopCorn?

You can access PassThePopCorn by searching for the term ‘PassThePopCorn Torrent’ in your search engine. Alternatively, if you want to access the platform directly, you can use the following link: PassThePopCorn.

Design

Similar to most of the torrent sites, PTP doesn’t have a cutting-edge design. The torrent sites – private or public – aren’t revered for aesthetics. Thus, I didn’t have high expectations, to begin with. Having said that, I have to admit the PTP is not entirely text-based. There is a fair amount of visuals supporting the text which prevents the portal from appearing bland. There is a dedicated header section followed by an interactive sidebar with sections such as ‘Film Club Spotlight’, ‘User Recommendation’, ‘Poll’, ‘Contests’, to name a few.

Header – The header section on PassThePopCorn has 10 main options – ‘Home’, ‘Movies’, ‘Collections’, ‘Requests’, ‘Forums’, ‘Chat’, ‘Top 10’, ‘Rules’, ‘Wiki’, and ‘Staff’. You can access any of these options and it’ll take you to a dedicated page. For instance, if you want to check out forums, you should click on the ‘Forums’ options. Similarly, if you want to make requests regarding a particular title, you can do so from the same menu.

Free Indie ContentPassThePopCorn is packed with great free indie content. As mentioned earlier, there are a lot of free indie movies on this platform divided across various genres, resolution, size, and torrent quality.

Other than the recently added torrents, you can sort the content based upon their popularity during a particular stage.

Desktop/Mobile experience

Free indie content downloading experience doesn’t get any better than this. On average, PTP has 2,131,151 seeders as opposed to 14,687 leechers. Thanks to the amazing Seeder/Leecher Ratio of 145, you can download content at a lightning speed. Even if you’re downloading a 5-10 GB file, it won’t take more than an hour if you have an internet speed above 10MBPS.

Suggestions I have for PassThePopCorn

The only thing I dislike about this platform is that the mods are slow when it comes to removing the inactive members. They just remove 300 inactive members each month which means that it can take well up to your year before a PTP enthusiast can become a member.

Conclusion

Private torrent communities don’t get any better than this. An extensive free indie content library, plenty of rewards, active community, and amazing download speed – what more can you hope for? PTP is every torrent enthusiast’s dream.
