BitComet
utorrent
Azureus is great, as in it has more features than you could ever possibly uitilize.
But the winner is uTorrent. I have 512mb RAM, so it's nice to have a client that only uses 6mb of RAM instead of Azureus or BitComet which use >50
Sorry for this lousy question, but what is a torrent used for? :cool:
uTorrent of course.
bitcomet, i like it
Azureus. I like everything except it eats my RAM :S
i use utorrent, and i am very satisfied. it is very simple to use.
i'm gonna take this back, i really like the default bit torrent software.Quote:

Utorrent ownz all.
I'm gonna take back what I originally said and change it to Azureus. Lots of details and info and fast (once you get the nat thing to work). Only downside, which has been stated before, it is eats up my ram. I'll have to give utorrent a try one day.
uTorrent - compact, fast, reliable. It is how software SHOULD get made.
Of course, for real downloading I use UseNet ;)
Like many: uTorrent, for torrents.
uTorrent:toast:
BitSpirit.
uTorrent
i've been using azureus for ages now. it's the best imo.
Whatever you use, uTorrent is better.
(I use uTorrent if you couldn't tell ;))
BitComet 0.63 :D
uTorrent, very first torrent program that I used on my own PC.

I love uTorrent. Fits in well with the theme/icon set I run. Plus it's just a great piece of software all-around.
A little OT.
My friend just got busted using a torrent to get a PC game. All he got was a letter in the mail. Any ways to get around this type of situation?
I'd have to say BitComet. I find it the easiest to tweak and i got great speeds from it.
Using µtorrent and azureus - both working great.
µtorrent for me.
u torrent... switched from azureus to u torrent and LUV it
uTorrent, because my site banned BitComet.
Azureus, but I'll have to give utorrent a try.
µtorrent is pretty good, better than Azureus to me, though I only tried Azureus once a year or so ago.
azureus @ server :toast:, but µtorrent on my notebook and mainrig. ;)
stick with the orig shadows experimental bittornado
utorrent is the best and doesnt rape your ram :)
Bitcomet!!!
azureus
I have used just about every version of bittorrent there is. I'm currently using azureus but i'm not overly impressed with its speeds anymore. I don't really use it much but I will give the newest version of uTorrent a go sometime.
Azureus didn't impress me at all. Too many settings to get wrong and it got half the speeds of BitComet which I used before. I guess if I could figure out the best settings it would have been fine but I couldn't get it to play nice with my router no matter what I did.
µTorrent on the other hand worked with great speeds and no tweaking needed at all, so that's what I use at the moment.
µtorrent and I've been meaning to try out BitTyrant too.

Then again, I've never had a speed issue with µtorrent.....especially not upload speeds (hits the 2.5MB/s limit I set in minutes...).
utorrent. it works great and I don't have to install it.
How is this pronounced. I use it but dont know how to say it?Quote:

IIRC BitTornado is the smallest client I have used.
uTorrent
another happy u-torrent user here :wave:
µtorrent is the best client and araditracker is the best tracker :D
I was using Azureus before but it takes too much resources for my notebook so i changed to utorrent and it works great :toast:
another µtorrent user here
µtorrent all the way :banana:
Azureus all the way:p
BitTyrant :D :D
Nothing beats the control Azureus offers. :banana:
I used Azureus for ages but have switched to Utorrent and am much happier with than any of the most popular alternatives, despite the overwhelming majority of Azureus users above. I guess a lot of it is personal preference no?
BitTyrant is Azureus but way faster
<---utorrent gets the job done for me
flashget :)
A LONG TIME AGO... I started using bittorrent client. If you can imagine that. It remind me of the IE download window. Then I discovered the goldmind of information known as torrent and viola I started on BitComet and loved it, til it got blacklisted everywhere. Damn DHT. Then I switched to Azureus and had problems with it being slow and crashing. Now it's µTorrent for the win. It reminds me of BitComet so that might be why I like it so much.
Bit Commet Ftw !
utorrent
Utorrent all the way!!
Can somebody direct me to a nice tutorial for utorrent please. I downloaded and installed it but I don't think I'm using it in the most efficient way.
Thanks in advance
I generally use mldonkey as a pure server (seperate box) and use sancho as the client to send torrents/whatever to donkey to handle. works great pure client-server way of doing torrents.

For you Sam
Thanks man! First place I shoulda look for.Quote:

I use azureus on the server, but it doesnt work on vista x64, so I'm using bitcomet on the other machine, but i dont like it -sometimes the downloads stop w/o a reason and it is awful for seeding.
I gotta try uTorrent.
Put µtorrent on the x64 machine. Best client ever and no need for java.
Got rid of bitcomet immediately.
Utorrent, install and it runs full speed direct.
No messing around and not 2000 options thats really not needed for torrents.
Works fine on this old machine with 128 ram =)
utorrent.
There's no going back after you get it dialed in.
uTorrent here too. :D
It's amazing how few resourses the thing really needs. Once I was forced by circumstances to use it on my "backup system": P166MMX & 32MB SDRAM and it worked just fine. Only the good old 2.5GB HDD was working to death with all the simultaneous donwloads, uploads and swap it had to handle. :rofl:

I have uTorrent installed but I've never bothered to use it.
utorent is best since it isnt banned for leaking on private trackers, and it dosnt use java like azures, but if ur mac based for some harable reason then azures is the easiest to get running, same for unix and linux, since u dont have to mod it to make it work
uTorrent for me
uTorrent = winrar
Seriously, its small, works well and doesn't run on java, eww....
Considering how simple it is, I like it better than any of the other torrent clients I've used and thats a LOT of them.
utorrent here for me as well.
uTorrent here too.
I only use it because I usually use Usenet and I am afraid of getting an e-mail from Comcast like some of my friends have. I would support the community more if it wasn't for the DMCA being in bed with Comcast and them watching what I upload 24/7. Someday maybe I'll own an OC3 or something an upload 24/7 :)Quote:

opera
uTorrent for me too, i used to use bitlord, and i thought that was ok too.
rtorrent :) Linux command line all the way - real men dont use guis! I can ssh into my box and set up downloads from work 24/7 :P
I've used uTorrent since the beginning although I have recently switched to Azureus. Now I alternate them every other day. My system is fast enough that I don't notice any problems with Azureus and I like some of its features.
I use uTorrent but mainly download using GrabIt from usenet.
uTorrent all the way!
+1 azureus + safepeer plugin
PeerGuardian2+ Utorrent. Right now I have 6 active torrents, uploading @ 110 kbps and Utorrent+PG2 together are using 10,200 kb of memory at the moment. So both are leaving a very small foot print. I'm waiting on my RMA, so for the time being I'm using a 1700+ Palamino and 512 mb of ram. So the small footprint is a real plus :)
oke :confused: explain please ?
Goes against the rules I think as well. :shrug:Quote:
