0 lexor Posted April 15, 2006 Share Posted April 15, 2006 (edited) uTorrent, has all the features I need, maxes out my download bandwidth, efficient and simple, what more can I wish for? Edited April 15, 2006 by lexor Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Chipsk Posted April 15, 2006 Share Posted April 15, 2006 I use the original Bittorrent client. I've used others like the G3 torrent, Azureus, BitSprite, BitComet, utorrent, ABC torrent, Even Opera's Bittorrent client. But I find that they all are way too feature packed and don't really got a nice interface that's pure plain and simple witch is what the original Bittorrent client has. Witch I must seem like a dinousaur for using it but it's what I like and I plan to keep on using it. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Julius Caro Posted April 15, 2006 Share Posted April 15, 2006 I've only used Azureus and uTorrent. I like 'em both, but as I get the same speeds, and both have the features I use, I say utorrent, because it's a light app. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Quillz Posted April 16, 2006 Share Posted April 16, 2006 I like Azureus. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 blush Posted April 16, 2006 Share Posted April 16, 2006 I use and love BitComet. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Jojo81 Posted April 16, 2006 Share Posted April 16, 2006 I like Bitcomet because it's not so feeble as uTorrent but still uses very few resources unlike Az. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 k311 Posted April 16, 2006 Share Posted April 16, 2006 ive been using bitlord as i tried the original bittorrent client and hated it and then tried azureus and didnt like it much better than the first and then i tried bittornado which was awful and i found bitlord worked so i stopped there, but with all the love utorrent is getting in this thread, i might have to try it :cool: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Nylonee Posted April 18, 2006 Share Posted April 18, 2006 I've tried the first four, and of those I pretty much use Azureus the most...never liked uTorrent and don't really understand why so many people like it. Because it's simple and doesn't take up too much space. Azuerus is for if you are a heavy bittorrenter... I have none of these but i know my friend uses bittorrents Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 b0m8er Posted April 18, 2006 Share Posted April 18, 2006 Azureus is the best for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Ran Sagy Posted April 18, 2006 Share Posted April 18, 2006 Voted for uTorrent. I'm a bit bribed, i suppose, i was around uT's development since the first released version. I definitly like how it came out eventually, It has everything 99% of the users needs and works like a charm. For the other 1% that needs extremely advanced features, i suppose Azureus is the answer. I dont think BitComet even deserves an entry though. It needs to actually implement the BitTorrent protocol correctly before i can call it a BT client.

0 WastedJoker Posted April 18, 2006 Share Posted April 18, 2006 uTorrent because it does what it says on the tin. It's small, fast, easy to configure, and looks sweet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Kreuger Posted April 18, 2006 Share Posted April 18, 2006 I used to like G3 Torrent, then started using Azureus when I moved to Linux. Now Im sick of it cause its so damn slow so I use KTorrent Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 ozgeek Posted April 25, 2006 Share Posted April 25, 2006 Been using ?Torrent here because of it light on resourses and the fact that I can carry it around on my USB drive. Tip to get ?, hold ALT and type 0181 while still holding ALT. After you press the last 1, let go of ALT and it will put in ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 The Champ Posted April 27, 2006 Share Posted April 27, 2006 uTorrent for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 ambiance Posted April 27, 2006 Share Posted April 27, 2006 I started with bittorrent, switched to azureus for quite a long while and now I am stuck with utorrent. I like it the most for it's easy setup, useful options, interface and encryption. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 Crazysah Posted May 10, 2006 Share Posted May 10, 2006 uTorrent definaely. Takes no time to install... Uses very little disk space and very low memory usage and it has the fastest speeds (well for me atleast). So uTorrent all the way! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Coolme Posted May 10, 2006 Share Posted May 10, 2006 uTorrent is great, but it seems like they have been going against what made them so attrative in the first place (minimal torrent client). Every version they release gets bigger and bigger and although it hasn't become a problem yet, I'd be nice if they just branched off a 'minimal' version with all the big fixes when the program does get bigger and use more resources. But so far it's great! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
