    The internet is great to provide us with our favorite TV shows free, early and watchable on demand. We always had to spend lots of time to keep up to date with the newest episodes. Until we created ted, our torrent episode downloader.

    Why waste time downloading TV NZB files when it can be done for you?

    Leechr will check your myepisodes.com page for the shows you need to acquire and will automatically download the relevant NZB files from your favourite NZB sites.

    Works great with a news-reader that can auto-i.
