Article lacks independent, reliable sources and does not establish notability. It is also written in a promotional/advertising tone. MrX 16:22, 2 August 2012 (UTC)

 * Keep: I didn't even have to search sources, as the article references news items on makeuseof, Download Squad and TorrentFreak. As all these sites are well-established reputable resources with no affiliation with BTDigg or its authors, I conclude that the article passes WP:GNG. Among these at least this, this and this claim this service's significance (they even call it "unique"), which makes the topic pass WP:NSOFT. That said, the article itself indeed features several unambiguously promotional phrases, but this issue can be addressed with editing. — Dmitrij D. Czarkoff (talk) 17:55, 3 August 2012 (UTC)
 * Keep – The article has some problems – it needs copy editing – but, as Czarkoff demonstrates, lack of reliable sources and notability is not among them. -- Michael Bednarek (talk) 02:17, 7 August 2012 (UTC)
