YouTorrent is a BitTorrent search engine which allows parallel searches on different torrent search engines.
As of April 14, 2008, YouTorrent changed from searching all torrent sites to only sites which provide licensed, certified content. This change angered many, and caused most of its users to leave the site.[2]
