Yes. Myrient was created to give users an ad-free and malware-free experience.
Myrient is a portmanteau of the words "myriad" and "entertainment", referring to the countless amount of video game content that is difficult to access or no longer available legitimately.

No-Intro, Redump, and TOSEC are groups that catalog games.
No-Intro specializes in cartridge-based games and digital content, Redump specializes in disc-based games, and TOSEC specializes in both. TOSEC-ISO and TOSEC-PIX are auxiliary sets of TOSEC.
It is important to note that they are not distributors of video game content; rather, they provide hashes to help ensure content is a 1:1 dump of the original copy. Without them, preserving content would be very difficult or impossible.
The search feature is versatile for filtering out all content except for a certain type. Here are a few usage examples:
Here is a list of applications along with their support status:

More information regarding connectivity issues and how to solve them are in the below section "Connectivity Issues".
It is most likely due to high traffic or poor routing from our servers to your ISP. You can use a download manager with multiple connections or VPN set to the closest location to change the routing and improve your download speed. If you are experiencing slow download speeds while using a VPN, disable it.

When compared to the 7-Zip format, ZIP archives are easier to manage and use. The ZIP format usually does not require the installation of a third-party program.
The software we use to organize files (also known as a ROM manager) compressed those files by default. Unfortunately, it is not currently possible to change the files to be decompressed without breaking all of the files' URLs.
All content can be verified by calculating the size and checksums (CRC-32, SHA-1, SHA-256, and MD5) of the file(s) inside the ZIP archive and comparing them to what is presented on No-Intro for the No-Intro collection, Redump for the Redump collection, and dats.site for the GameCube RVZ, Wii RVZ, and Wii U WUX sets. If they match, the content has not been tampered with.
All ZIP files were compressed using a standard format called TorrentZip, which helps ensure all files compressed result in identical archives. The 8 characters after "TORRENTZIPPED-" represent the CRC-32 checksum of all the files in the archive's central directory. The string does not affect the data contained within the archive in any way.
Myrient offers pre-patched or translated ROMs for download if they are included in sets or Internet Archive items.
As content in sets are always being added or updated, they naturally also have to be updated anywhere else they are available. Torrents are impossible to update without using BitTorrent v2, which has support for mutable torrents but is not widely adopted yet and has caveats. From a realistic standpoint, no one would seed the torrents and it would just be a fancy form of direct downloading but with implied risks.
The RVZ format is unconventional by Redump standards and the only format Myrient offers for GameCube and Wii to save storage and bandwidth. If you already have the beta or development version of Dolphin, skip steps 2 and 3.

The WUX format is unconventional by Redump standards and the only format Myrient offers for Wii U to save storage and bandwidth. If you already have WudCompress, skip step 2.
