But I did find this... BTW, www.mininova.org is the best torrent search engine I've found.

Might help? (http://www.mininova.org/upload)

think like bearshare or limewire, except you have to do it with more effort, but it's not centralized where the owner of the company (ie limewire) gets sued. This is s supposed to be a free-flowing, file-sharing, upside-down pyramid scheme. And it works great, provided people actually stick around after their file has completed downloading.
