incidentally, in case anyone notices, thought i'd answer the question in advance...
yes, this file is nuked, and there is a proper release. but, the proper is
because this release has 44,100hz audio. which is a stupid reason for a proper
and as such eztv will not be releasing it. 😉

eh if loki can\'t follow the scene rules it\'s supposed to be nuked. whether you
think it\'s a stupid reason is irrelevant. he maybe you think wrong ivtc or audio
glitches are a stupid reason to nuke also? (also what is up with site, uploading
stuff without nfo, sample, and unrar'ed?)
the proper is masters.of.horror.s02e07.proper.hdtv.xvid-kyr by the way

zzzozzzo:
everything is released unrared b/c it is more simple and easier to use. also,
abennett said the file was nuked and it is nuked for a silly reason. so, what
gives you the right to talk to an admin like that?
nfo's can be aquired through numerous sites such as nforce.nl and it is
pointless to post them here. btw, audio glitches and wrong itvc are great
reasons as to why a file should be nuked.
ps: did you know that it uses alot of resources to release a file? such as more
bandwidth and seeding? i for one am happy that eztv even releases files nuked
or not. if you don't like it, head over to torrentspy or mininova.
thanks for the newest moh episode!

that would be re-released, this is not a topsite 😉
well maybe because there's freedom of opinion & information here (hopefully)
yup, but that would be relying on other sites. why should a downloader have to
visit other sites when he can simply grap a nfo from a torrent?
sure i know (i meant it sarcastically), but standards are there to ensure the
best possible quality and 48000 audio is better than 44100
not really. tv shows can uploaded quite fast on modest connections, that's the
beauty of the bt protocol.
you clearly don't have a clue: most ppl actually grab the torrents for eztv
releases from mininova 😉
yup thanks. but it's nice to have alternatives ppl can choose from.
ps: the quoting works strange here, you'll get it

get off your high horse buddy. eztv is here to provide the public, however
non-knowledgeable of the scene they are, with free tv. the majority of people
don't know how to deal with rars etc so don't worry about that argument.
as far as watchability goes, the 44.1khz audio frequency doesn't require a whole
new torrent to be created and seeded. it just confuses people (those who just
want a watchable tv show), and wastes eztv's resources. the kyr proper was
accepted as valid within the scene, that's all that should matter to them.

1) i never stated it was a stupid reason for a nuke. i stated it was a stupid
reason for a proper. files should be nuked to maintain standards, but releasing
a proper to replace a file which is perfectly good apart from one tiny aspect
that nobody could possibly notice is silliness, and will annoy people who have
rss set up and end up with two copies of an episode for no good reason.
2) files are unrarred because the rar format is pointless for the torrent
protocol which has inbuilt checking. rar'd releases also die off much more
quickly on torrent because people extract the avi, delete the rars and leave the
swarm.
3) including nfo files with the avi would make the whole process a lot more
complicated. and given that the nfo files almost never contain any useful
information, it's not worth the effort. if the nfo files contain anything of
relevance it will usually be posted in the torrent comments here.

1) hmmm 48000 khz audio is the standard. also the reason not to release a proper
because of ppl\'s rss feed set-ups is about the silliest excuse i ever heard.
2.) ppl can kick the torrent in .avi format just as fast as in rar format, and
(as you know) the rar format increases the inter-operability between different
p2p networks (mainly irc & usenet)
3a.) excusez-moi? not useful info? ok apart from the useless ascii art there\'s
useful file specs in every nfo.
3b.) including a nfo and sample in a directory is not really extra work (i guess
you don\'t do it to get more downloads counted 😉 ). but it\'s not a valid reason
to omit the nfo and sample even if you don\'t upload in the original rar
format

1) giving people what they want is the primary aim - and i'm willing to bet
there is a miniscule amount of people who want the proper. but there are plenty
who don't want to download a file twice. if that's a silly excuse then so be it.
2) of course they can, but they are more likely to kill a rar file. people are
much more likely to keep one copy of a file on their machine than two. and
anything that prolongs the life of the torrent is worth doing. as for
inter-operability, this is a torrent site - we're not going to annoy torrent
users in order to please irc/usenet users.
3a) you think the file specs are useful, i think they're useless, that's a
difference of opinion.
3b) it would require a complete recoding of the automated systems in use, that's
a lot of work. not sure what you mean by download count, can't see how either
way would register more or less downloads.
whatever the case, i really can't be bothered continuing this discussion - if
you want to get a group of users to post how much they love rars and nfo files
over torrent then perhaps things could change. but i'd hazard a guess that the
vast majority of downloaders just want the avi.

the testosterone is so thick you can taste it. eww.
if you can't see or hear a difference there is no difference. it's that simple.
what's all the fuss about anyway? this particular plot is quite camp.

being from australia and not being able to get anymore than 60gb a month to
download all the great tv shows that will never even make it to australian tv i
really appreciate that someone "abennett" has mentioned that this file was
nuked and also gave the reason why it was nuked. meaning that now i know that i
don't have to waste another 350mb of my precious download on a file that is
absolutely useless to me seeing as though i already have this file.
the fact that everyone is willing to argue over something as trivial as another
4khz of audio.
not only that but then they use this forum to start complaining about other
things such as nfo's and whether the file is in rar or not.
if you don't like the way this site is run and they was that the files are
presented to you then go get them from somewhere else.
considering that all these shows are free i'm absolutely dumbfounded that so
many people are willing to bitch and moan all day about the stupidest things.
thank-you to all the eztv staff and all the cappers who make it possible for me
to download and watch all these great shows with the ease that this site makes
possible.

everything you believe about the rest of the p2p world does not apply in the
world of bit torrent... torrents are a whole other beast entirely..
rar's are not the preferred form to transmit anything at all over bt..
whether it be videos, a disc image, a folder full of pictures, whatever...
there is no point in breaking something up into multiple rar's, when the bt
protocol breaks it into pieces and blocks as it is... it becomes redundant.
and if things are trapped inside rar's, you completely negate the ability of bt
to be able to pick & choose specific files to get, ignore, or place priority on..
why would you seriously want to negate a feature ??
everything you have come to know and love about filesharing does not apply in
the least to bit torrents.... welcome to our world now.. leave your antiquated
notions at the door!

i agree, thanks guys, eztv rocks!
personally i\'m only after the avi file... i mean i only download it to watch the
show, not to read the contents of the nfo. and it\'s true, if this was rared, i\'d
probably extract and then delete the rar (not that i don\'t have storage space
for it)... as for samples, who really has time, besides everything on eztv seems
good.
as for not littering the rss feeds, i agree on that one -- it would litter it
and get my hopes up when i think there\'s a new episode of one of my shows on..
and then there isn\'t... plus i have to hit delete more often, and that\'s just
not fun.
