R.I.P Finalgear
If you live outside of the U.K and wanted to watch top gear the day it aired you would go to finalgear.com. Final gear linked you torrent sites and you could have an hd torrent a few hours after it aired. Now let me make this clear, I do not condone piracy I think it is theft. But the beeb gave everyone out side the u.k the shaft. For years it wasn't available and only recently have they started broadcasting on BBC America and what they did broadcast was a butchered edited version. They would cut 15 minutes from and fill it with crappy adds. On top of that we were always a season behind, so we'd get a watered down episode a few years late... great. Now if the BBC let us use their iPlayer I wouldn't have to torrent. If they would have it on itunes the they it aired I would even pay the $5 to watch it. So you really can't fault me or others for doing so, its their own actions which made some one create this.

The torrent files have always been hosted elsewhere, and come up very easily on Sunday nights. The discussion forum side of FinalGear.com will still carry the necessary flame....
