Kickass Torrents has been the Internet's number one torrent site for quite a while now. The site just recently celebrated Happy Torrents Day, a day meant to celebrate file-sharing- and to celebrate Kickass Torrents as the most popular torrent site on the Internet by a significant margin, beating out the number two site, The Pirate Bay, by quite a bit.

TorrentFreak notes that Mr. Pink, administrator for Kickass Torrents, is speaking out about Happy Torrents Day and what it means to those who use torrents on a regular basis:

"The main purpose is to get everybody to believe that what we do is worth fighting for. Everybody is equal. Yes it started on Kickass with us but it's not about us. It's about every person that believes in file sharing."

However, all that celebration might be short-lived. It's very possible that The Pirate Bay may be planning a coup of sorts, and that they could reclaim the throne that they once held- the most popular torrent site on the Internet. International Business Times notes that Denmark has recently blocked Kickass Torrents (as well as several other major torrent sites) from the entire country. However, according to IBT, the methods most torrent sites use to evade these kinds of bans end up attracting even more users to popular torrent sites.

Tech Times has a crucial piece of info on the matter. Late last year, both Kickass Torrents and The Pirate Bay were shut down for extended periods of time, but before the shutdowns, The Pirate Bay was actually the #1 site for file-sharing. This means it's very likely the former champ could come back to the top spot on a more permanent basis, even if Kickass Torrents is currently dominating the torrent market right now. Currently, Kickass Torrents is about 100 rankings higher on Alexa than The Pirate Bay.
