uTorrent (Mac Beta) is now available...

I really really want this to work with RSS feeds! why wont they give it us when the windows verstion supports it!

Because it's for torrents, not news. We already have Safari, Mail and NetNewsWire for RSS feeds.

Why would you need RSS feeds on torrent client?

He's not trying to get news from those RSS feeds, he's trying to get torrents :p.

Many trackers publish RSS feeds for categories, and what uTorrent on Windows allows one to do, is point the app at the feed, and proceed to get new .torrent files on its own (and subsequently begin the download), without user interaction.

Oh, I actually didn't know this. That's actually a good idea.

Yeah, it's never been something I myself have had the time to bother setting up, but I imagine a number of people find it useful.

Having uTorrent on mac is just one more thing thats making me ever so close to making the switch :D

RSS is amazing, the torrent starts downloading pritty much straight after it was posted. Once the i get up the files have normally downloaded and seeded at least half of what i downloaded :) I just hope uTorrent gets this up and running so i can swap clients

Apparently uTorrents problem with not remembering your download folder preferences is exclusive to PPC's. Intel Macs aren't seeing the same problem. Hopefully they'll fix this soon.

I just started using uTorrent for Mac and I have to say speed-wise it's the best client on Mac I've tried so far. (Y) The interface still leaves much to be desired for though. :/
