- This looks promising, I hope this takes off in a massive way. We really really really need an open-source BitTorrent client that can replace uTorrent as the client of choice.

Azureus is still the king in features. uTorrent is still amazing however it's now owned by an evil corporation.
Let's wait for a port of qBittorrent for Windows.Quote -Peerkoel is also working on porting qBittorrent to Windows and we are hoping that v0.9.0 will be available on Linux / MacOS X / Windows systems.

- This version finally brought single file selection in batch torrents. This client is looking good so far, but don't expect much. It will take some time till it's fully ready (version 1.0 I'd assume).
