Cool new features + toolbar

Hi all, We're excited to announce several new (and in our opinion, very cool) features! Let's kick off:

Streaming of distributed music torrents

In close cooperation with the guys from BitLet, we added a "stream this music" button to torrents containing music (MP3/OGG Vorbis) files (example). This feature allows you to play the music right in your browser, without the need to download the content with a BitTorrent client. Note that this feature is only enabled on distributed (featured) torrents. Artists who're interested in this feature: sign up for our free Content Distribution service.

Updating seeds/leechers statistics

This one was on top of the list of requested features. Our scraper system updates all torrent statistics several time a day. Many people think this is not enough, so we added an "update" button. With just one click, the statistics are up-to-date again. Note that this feature is only available for registered users, and there's a time constraint per user and per torrent.

Tracking your comments

This is a nice feature for our active commenters. We already had the my torrents page, and now there's also my comments. Did you forget where you left a comment? Just check out this page to find it back.

Mininova toolbar

Last, but absolutely not least, we're happy to announce the Mininova Toolbar. This toolbar (available for Firefox and Internet Explorer, Windows/Linux/Mac) is the perfect way to stay in touch with Mininova. The toolbar features integrated RSS feeds, category browsing, quick shortcuts and of course torrent searching in your browser. Give it a try: the toolbar is absolutely spyware/adware free! Do you miss some features? Or have you got an awesome idea? Please let us know, and we'll look into it :) Thanks!
