Wahoo! SUMOTorrent is now a part of our list of Torrent websites that we search. We've been a little late in the game with them (apologies to good folks at SUMOTorrent), but with their addition, you should have a good cross section of Torrent sites and get most of what you want from our search engine.
Anyway, more good things are coming your way in the next several months. Cheers!
thing is

I second 'dude's' comments.
Since their apperance on Speckly, I've kept track of how many good downloads I've gotten and out of the last 21 downloads (I just tried a Blues Bros. file and got the proverbial "invalid file!" message) only TWO have been good.
If I'm not getting the above mentioned error message, I get the other error message, which is "an unexpected error occured, please try again later" and no matter how long you wait, the same error message always pops up, or, as was the case yesterday, the Pearl Jam file I clicked on ended up being an Eminem file, which did me no good.
I've checked all pertinent setting in my firewalls/AV programs and everything checks out and besides, I've never had any problems with any other site I've used so far.
Bottom line is that regardless of whether or not you have an account with Sumo, as I do, they have the worst track record out all the sites I've used, through Speckly or otherwise, in my humble opinion. I suppose that it's possible that they're a new site and still working out the bugs, but I'm thinking not.
I would offer the suggestion that in the future, Speckly puts all new sites through an exacting and thorough vetting process before adding them to the list, because I personally LOVE Speckly and I would hate for it to be slagged off as a waste of time to where people stop using it because the linked-to sites from Speckly are as worthless as Sumo now appears to be.
Cheers!
