Ed. note: We’ve shown you how to automatically download your favorite TV shows before, but even if you’ve got your downloads automated perfectly, there’s still a little matter of organization. Productive Geek forum member ejf071189 details how he automates his TV-download organization.
I used to use uTorrent’s RSS feature to automatically download shows via this guide (see “How do I use the RSS feed in my client ?”). This allowed me to automatically have shows downloaded into appropriate folders, which are monitored by XMBC which scrapes thetvdb.com to add the shows to its own library. While XBMC was able to identify episode information with the naming system the torrents used, I preferred to have the episodes better organized using TVRename. Every so often I would run TVRename and scan my library for files that had to be renamed and rename them.
There were problems with this method, though. The obvious problem was that I would have to remember to run TVRename, which really wasn’t that big a deal. The bigger problem was that depending on when XBMC scanned my TV folder for new media, if the files were renamed with TVRename, XBMC would then have to rescan the file with the new name, leading to dead files and dupes in library view.
Here’s the method I used to resolve the issue:
1. Download TVRename 2.1.1a6 here. The 2.1.1 line of TVRename is the only one that supports command line arguments. The 2.2 alphas are supposed to have this feature reimplemented but development is currently on hiatus.
2. Reconfigure utorrent’s RSS feature to download all shows to a folder outside of the folders XBMC monitors. This could be a generic download folder or a subfolder called “Unsorted TV Shows,” for example.
3. In the “Finding and Organising” tab of TVRename, add the same folder that you set utorrent to download your shows to as a search folder.
4. Add your shows to TVRename with settings like this.
5. Create a batch script in the C:Program FilesTVRename directory called “rename.bat” with the following command:
tvrename.exe /renamingcheck /renamingdo /missingcheck /fnocheck /fnodo /quit
From the TVRename forum: "That will make it check for files needing to be renamed, then rename them, then check for missing files, do a finding&organising check for them, move/copy the files found, then quit. Add "/hide" if you want it all to happen without the window coming up"
6. Go into the task scheduler or other scheduling app and add a new task that runs this batch file at intervals to your liking.
Now files that go into your downloads folder will periodically be sorted into your library with appropriate names and in the corresponding season folders (TVRename should create a season folder when necessary), and will only be scanned into XBMC with the correct name.

BTJunkie is one of the largest torrent indexers on the web with over four million torrents and several thousand added daily. BTJunkie amasses such a high number of torrents by employing crawlers that dig through web sites looking for torrent files to index. The quality of torrents is ranked both by an algorithm and by user input which helps filter out low quality or malicious torrents.
If you’re a BitTorrent lover but aren’t too keen on all the pop-ups, racy ads, and clutter that’s everywhere on most torrent sites, new BitTorrent site Nerrot is the cleanest, most bare-bones torrent site we’ve ever seen.
All-things BitTorrent weblog TorrentFreak broke down the numbers and rounded up the 25 most popular torrent sites of 2009. The results represent several best-known sites (like The Pirate Bay), but also probably a few you're not all that familiar with. Incidentally, number 20 on the list, Demonoid—a hybrid public and private tracker that we've always liked despite its recent downtime—is 
The final version of Ubuntu 9.10 has hit Ubuntu’s servers a little bit ahead of its front page. Grab a torrent or ISO of the free Linux operating system while the servers aren’t slammed.
If you’re of the mindset that what you do with your BitTorrent client is your business and not that of people snooping, sniffing, and prying at your packets along the way, ItsHidden offers a free VPN server to anonymize your activity.
