Sneak peek at using Cpasbien alternatives
Since Cpasbien garnered a massive userbase from France, its ban in the region infuriated many. Luckily, some great Cpasbien alternatives are now available online, providing similar great torrent media as Cpasbien. But because torrenting remains a tricky job, ensure you secure your traffic with a robust VPN and avoid downloading copyrighted material to stay safe from possible legal issues.
Not too long ago, people in France and everywhere would have tons of great torrenting sites to download the best movies, music, games, TV shows, and lots more. But unfortunately, this is hardly the case today as there is strict surveillance from ISPs and the government, who keep blocking these websites.
Despite Cpasbien being France’s most loved torrenting site, it’s still among the ones that got blocked. But there is always a way around everything; other quality torrenting sites like Cpasbien still exist.
These sites are what we will be focusing on in this article. We have created a list of the top eleven alternatives. These torrenting websites will ensure you don’t miss out on your favorite movies and shows, broaden your horizon, and discover new content you might like.
A quick overview of top Cpasbien alternatives
- Torrent9: It is an excellent torrenting site suitable for French-speaking users. Torrent9 offers many movies, games, movies, TV shows, and more. The site, which attracts millions of visitors monthly, is endorsed by some of its competitors, including SmarTorrent.

- RuTracker: You will find lots of Russian movies here, along with music, games, eBooks, apps, and lots more. The site has an outdated design, but this does not impact the quality of content available.
- GK Torrent: This one is mainly for the French audience. It offers films, consoles, PC games, and lots more. We found its advanced search functionality a lifesaver, making it easy to search for torrents based on the latest additions or recommendations.
- TorrentGalaxy: Like other torrent websites, it thrives on offering only the best content in the P2P domain. Also, the admin reviews the torrent files before uploading to ensure top-quality files.

The quick guide to using alternatives to Cpasbien safely
Torrenting poses several risks, including software vulnerabilities, malvertising, data leakage, legal troubles, etc. To avoid such problems, using a quality VPN whenever on Cpasbien or any other site is essential. The easy steps outlined below will walk you through how:
- Download and install a torrent client such as qBittorrent or uTorrent (if you haven’t already).
- Next, subscribe to a VPN (our number one recommendation here is ExpressVPN), and download and install it on your device. Although it’s not compulsory, a VPN is necessary as it gives you anonymity, prevents malware attacks, and protects you from other threats while torrenting.
- Go to any Cpasbien alternative of your choice and start downloading torrents of your choice.
Attention: Read before you begin torrenting
Privacysavvy.com disapproves of the illicit distribution of copyrighted works. Kindly note that while P2P file sharing is not unlawful in itself, it can also contain copyrighted files. Should you upload these copyrighted contents, you are likely to be prosecuted if you are in countries like Canada, the U.K, U.S.A, Australia, and so on.
P2P civil lawsuits are considered a criminal offense and come with several adverse effects, including the monetary and emotional burdens on the accused. Also, the government can mandate your ISP to release the details of your torrent activities to the plaintiff.
In summary, the more torrent activities you carry out, the more chances of being slammed with a lawsuit by the relevant authorities (the copyright protection groups).
That is why we recommend our users always check the legality of a torrent you wish to download upfront so that you keep all the legal troubles at bay (saying no to piracy is an ethical practice anyway, too). And then, also remember, protecting your privacy and security via a VPN is critical while torrenting (for many reasons, as covered later in this article).
Best Cpasbien safe alternatives (detailed analysis)
Since Cpasbien isn’t available anymore, many torrent lovers are always searching for alternatives. If you are one of them, you are just in luck as we review the 11 best ones. They include:
1. Torrent9
We begin our list with Torrent9, a popular torrenting site in France and other French-speaking countries such as Gabon and Cameroon. The website attracts more than two million visitors monthly and specializes in games, music, eBooks, TV series, films, etc.
On top of that, it has the largest music and TV show catalog you will ever find. In addition, torrent9 has a robust database with well over two million high-quality torrents that are downloadable at high speed.
A testament to Torrent9’s top position was when SmarTorrent (a popular website) started redirecting its clients to Torrent9. More than anything, this action endorsed Torrent9 as the leading torrent site of French origin.
However, in a recent statement, the platform disclosed that users could no longer download files via its platform. Although the site admin has since rescinded the news, this was shocking; many wonder what the future holds for the well-loved torrenting platform.
As per our research and the email reports we get, some users cannot access Torrent9 sometimes. If that happens to you, don’t worry; you can turn to a Torrent9 proxy (unblocked mirror sites, Torrents9 alternatives, whatever you call it) to unblock your favorite torrent website. Below are some of them for you (all working):
- https://www.torrent9.to/
- https://www.torrent9.ninja/
- http://www.torrents9.tv/
- http://www.torrent-9.fr/
- https://www.torrent9.gg/
2. T411
It is one of the biggest torrent sites with several top-quality torrent files. But beyond being a fantastic French torrent site, it has a forum community featuring more than 5.5 million members from countries such as Belgium, Canada, and France.
These communities offer valuable advice in almost every aspect, including FR torrents and quickly downloadable files. Also, T411 torrenting site monitors users’ ratio of uploaded and downloaded files and uses the information gathered to improve its contents. It gets a whopping 37 million monthly visitors, which is a fantastic feat for any website.
On the downside, it has lots of ads and pop-ups. Thus, we adverse you not only to have a quality free ad blocker installed but also to exercise caution while downloading.
3. YggTorrent
If you are of French origin and love torrenting, you surely would have heard of YggTorrent. The torrenting website offers a broad list of files. Apart from the latest games and movies, you will also find many apps, audio files, animations, and documentaries. This platform also offers sports content, animation series, video clips, comics, podcast radio, and eBooks.
YggTorrent is easy to use and convenient, as each category has various subcategories that enable you to locate content quickly. Although the torrenting source requires an account before you can use it, you need not fret over that, as it’s completely free and will be up and running in a few minutes.
Also, it offers excellent customer support via its YggTorrent community that provides help to users in need. In December 2020, the torrent platform announced that they now have more than five million subscribers, which is impressive for only a three-year-old site.
4. Kickass Torrents
In 2016, Kickass Torrents stormed the industry and rose sharply to the top. It has an extensive portfolio of torrent files and magnetic links suitable for P2P file-sharing that uses the BitTorrent protocol.
Yes, it’s not available everywhere, but it remains one of the best Cpsabien alternative sites. From the homepage, you can search for anything you need, from TV shows and movies to game torrents and music. Besides, the torrenting site has a regularly updated blog and a friendly community.
That’s not all; it also features a comprehensive FAQs section with all the answers many would have about the site and how to use it.
On the downside, you will encounter some ads and pop-ups, but a good ad blocker or VPN can handle that. Also, as hinted earlier, it isn’t accessible (blocked by the authorities) in many countries such as the U.S.A, Australia, India, and Britain. However, there are several other Kickass alternatives that you can use; hence you wouldn’t be missing a thing.
5. ZeTorrents
If you wish for a site that offers games, movies, and music, look no further than ZeTorrents. The torrent tracker has a sleek design that results in high performance. Also, it features more than 12,000 films, with a large section solely dedicated to documentary movies.
The platform lets you quickly search for your favorite games, TV shows, albums, music ebooks, and apps. Besides, you will also be able to browse through popular torrents.
On top of that, it features a ‘trending‘ list (at the bottom of the page) where you can check out trending content if you desire some inspiration. Like most other Cpasbien alternative sites on the list, ZeTorrents is mainly for a French-speaking audience.
The torrenting platform conceals torrent links behind URL shorteners presented as ads.
6. RuTracker
- Website URL: rutracker.org/forum/index.php
RuTracker is a famous Russian torrenting site with extensive content, including movies, music, TV shows, games, and many more.
It is a very attractive alternative to Cpasbein, and it has continued to grow in popularity with a large user base. The site was launched in 2004 and has undergone several changes due to legal challenges and government pressure.
RuTracker has an impressive interface that makes users find their desired content quickly. In addition, the site ensures a smooth user experience by implementing a strict policy against fake torrents and low-quality content.
However, torrenting does have some legal risks, so use it at your own risk. We recommend you use it with a top-notch VPN like NordVPN or ExpressVPN.
7. Gk Torrent
Gk Torrent is another fantastic alternative website to Cpasbien. The portal is explicitly for a French-speaking audience; hence it offers several film recommendations and allows you to download any movie of your choice with just a few clicks.
What we liked the most about it was its vast movie collection. The site also offers the latest TV shows, apps, eBooks, PC games, consoles, software, TV series, etc. It has a simple layout, and the search bar makes things even more breeze. Simply click on the category you wish to download or input the title in the search box.
It allows users to search for content via two categories — the latest additions and the top 100 recommendations.
8. TorrentGalaxy
It is one of the most visited and oldest alternatives to Cpasbien. TorrentGalaxy first came to light in 2022 and has grown to become one of the most famous torrenting websites. Like other top torrent websites, it features a well-maintained portfolio of P2P content. The site reviews its torrent files before publishing; this ensures users only get premium content they can trust.
Its simple design ensures you can easily navigate the website, while its high-speed downloads make torrenting fun. It has no registration requirement, greatly relieving those who dislike going through such formalities.
The site attracts approximately 36K visitors monthly, a further testament to its high quality.
However, the site has pop-up and display ads that can be malicious and intrusive and damage your device with malicious software. Hence, a trustworthy ad blocker is essential to ensure safety from these hazards.
9. EliteTorrent
EliteTorrent is among the best, most considerable, and most visited Spanish torrent trackers. It bears details of Cpasbien; hence, you can also get Cpasbien information from the site. It offers only top-quality TV shows such as Blu-ray and HD, a feature suitable for home entertainment on a bigger screen. Moreover, it offers an extensive catalog of television shows in multiple languages.
The torrent admins require users to share their files before inducting them into the website community. Failure to do so will result in being kicked out of the site. Nevertheless, it boasts approximately 430K monthly visitors, a number large enough to tell you it’s a great alternative to the Cpsabien site.
Unfortunately, EliteTorrent is available in a few regions. So, it is recommended to use a premium VPN like ExpressVPN or Private Internet Access.
10. TorrentFunk
This website is a private tracker that offers an extensive collection of TV series, games, Apps, eBooks, movies, and music. These contents are downloadable at super-fast speed. All contents are grouped and filtered using various selection criteria such as genre.
No subscription or sign-up is required to access the TorrentFunk website. The site has over 37,000 users, a good number. However, make sure to use ad-blocking software to keep the intrusive ads off of your screen.
11. RARBG
RARBG is one of the industry’s oldest and most famous torrenting websites, with many members attached. A while ago, it encountered some internal issues which forced the site to move to another domain. And although the site changed a few details, it’s still basically the same.
It’s a great alternative to Cpasbien as it offers several movies, music, games, TV shows, etc. The site is very attractive, simple, and functional. It attracts many users from all over the world.
How can I access blocked ones from my location?
It’s not surprising to encounter a torrent site that is blocked. However, when you notice this, do not fret, as there is an easy way to bypass these restrictions: through VPNs.
Despite the numerous VPNs available, not all can let you download torrents safely, regardless of your location. You can ensure your safety and privacy with a quality VPN such as ExpressVPN. Here is how to access any Cpasbien alternative that’s blocked (or any other site) from your location:
- Get a VPN that works out of the box for unblocking websites and supports P2P traffic in total (we strongly recommend ExpressVPN).
- Download and install the VPN on your device.

Torrenting seamlessly requires great speed and consistency, which ExpressVPN provides. It is a super-fast VPN with a privacy-friendly network of servers spread across over 94 countries around the globe. Furthermore, all of its 3000+ servers support P2P, making torrenting easy and convenient.
The provider is based in the British Virgin Islands, where it operates. And since this location is free from the Five Eyes, Nine Eyes, and Fourteen Eyes surveillance, you wouldn’t have any government agency snooping into your affairs. Its jurisdiction also prevents your ISP and other antipiracy laws from gaining access to your data.
Perhaps the most exciting part of this VPN service provider is that it does not compromise safety and security despite its incredible speed. The VPN provides military-grade encryption. To ensure this, it features static and shared IPs, DNS leak protection, and AES-bit encryption.
On top of that, ExpressVPN is among the best no-log VPNs. Therefore you won’t catch them retaining any of your personal data. It also has an auto kill switch; this protects your data and prevents IP and DNS leaks even when a VPN service is in downtime. Moreover, the provider’s advanced security protocols protect your information, preventing your treasured data from getting into mischievous hands.
Another thing about this VPN that impressed us is its unlimited bandwidth, allowing users to download as much as possible, even P2P content. ExpressVPN is not only good for torrenting; users can also unblock numerous geo-restricted streaming services, namely Netflix, DAZN, Hulu, Amazon Prime Video, and many widely used French TV shows and channels (TV5Monde, France 24, and BabyTV French, to name a few).
Furthermore, the service offers friendly 24/7 customer support to answer your queries around the clock. Its 30-day money guarantee is all the assurance you need to commit.
Why do I need a VPN when torrenting?
Torrenting is widespread and does not require a VPN, but using this security tool is the most reliable way to protect yourself. Torrenting is not only an unsafe but risky affair. Today, you could land in legal trouble if you download P2P content with your actual identity in some countries.
Also, your ISP can yank you off the internet if they notice any activity they consider illegal at their end. To make matters worse, you could attract the organization’s attention whose content you are downloading. Although you will be given a fine for the first offense, the next course of action against you could be a lawsuit — and if you persist, you could land in jail.
To avoid these complications, using a VPN while torrenting is best. A VPN connects you to a server in any location of your choice. Once connected, a new IP address is given to you, which bears the new place you have chosen. Thus, it keeps you anonymous and lets you download anything you want without leaving a trace.
While hundreds of VPN service providers are available on the market, they often have data limits and porous security features. Considering this, we advise that you go for premium services only. These offer unlimited bandwidth, watertight encryption, and client apps for all major devices.
Besides, opting for a VPN with ad-blocking features, such as Surfshark, is a plus. Here it’s worth noting even though ExpressVPN does not offer an ad blocker yet. Still, it is the number one choice for torrenting. If you went with it, we suggest you opt for an ad blocker (you can find numerous free ones today). Most torrenting sites often generate many pop-ups, which could contain malware and other viruses, and you wouldn’t want such a mess to enter your device.
Guide on picking the best Cpasbien alternative to use
Thousands of websites offer torrents, but not all are equal in speed, security, and reliability. That calls for criteria that we must look at to vet well from not-so-cool ones. And that applies to torrent sites similar to Cpasbien, too. Below we have outlined a list of factors considered while finalizing this list and the one you can consider when selecting a torrenting source. They include:
- Speed of download: This refers to the average speed required for torrenting sites to download files to your device. Since you wouldn’t want to spend hours watching your favorite TV series episode download, you should pay close attention to this factor and only opt for sites with super-fast download speeds.
- Library size: The library size of a P2P content directory is equally essential. Consider torrent websites with more colossal content databases than others. While doing this, prioritize the anime, books, movies, and games you wish to access. Note that the size of the library sometimes does not guarantee reliable sources, as there are sites with a smaller library that are still as good as those with tons of content.
- Security: This is one of the most important factors to consider. The best sites ensure your online activities are secure and safe. If you value privacy, we suggest you turn to safe sites and use a VPN while torrenting.
- Ad intrusion: Imagine trying to watch an exciting movie; all you keep seeing are ads in between. It can be such an annoying and frustrating experience to have. Therefore, when selecting a site, choose the one with little or no ad intrusion.
- Restricted areas: Governments worldwide are constantly at war with P2P content directories. Consequently, many people find some of the best torrenting sites under restriction in their regions. The most suitable site for you would be the one that’s not blocked in your country. However, if you like another that’s not accessible in your location, no problem. With a quality torrenting VPN, you can bypass these restrictions by rerouting your internet connection to an area where the sites aren’t banned.
- The number of monthly visitors: The number of monthly visitors a site attracts says a lot about its content and its integrity. A site with many monthly visitors indicates the source’s quality, consistency, and premium content.
- Mirror websites: Consider torrent portals with mirror sites more than those without one. When these websites get blocked (as is usually the case), you can still gain access via their mirror sites.
- Date of establishment: In the last five to ten years, the government has shut down several torrent portals. So, sites that have survived this time deserve to be in the top spot of the best websites, indicating that they are resilient and dependable.
- Leecher/seeder ratio: This is another crucial thing to consider before selecting a site. The more the leecher/seeder ratio, the faster the download rate.
That’s it. Pick wisely.
How to identify fake torrent sites
Spotting fake sites and differentiating the legal from the illegal ones will save you a lot of trouble, whether you’re in France or elsewhere. Below you have some key points that will help identify if the site you hope to select is trustable:
- Avoid torrents with the latest content: Many are eager to download the latest music or movie. However, we advise you to avoid recent uploads because they often feature copyright infringement.
- Download only verified torrents: Some websites attach a verified status to their public information. Look for such on your website; it helps you identify authentic sites and avoid fake ones.
- Avoid websites with passwords: Some sites may require that you create a password before you can access the files, after which many would redirect you to another site. Flee from such sites as they may contain malware.
- Beware of sites with WMV or WMA Extensions: Torrent sites with WMV or WMA extensions are usually fake. Avoid them at all costs.
Wrapping up
Although Cpasbien may have been shut down, several of its good alternatives still exist to ensure you never miss out on the latest movies, TV programs, games, and so on, regardless of location.
But while torrenting with the best sites is excellent, you must take precautionary measures to lock your internet safety and privacy, and the only reliable way to do it is with a VPN.
