Best bit torrent client?
#311932 - 07/25/13 02:13 AM


I've been using uTorrent, but it is turning into bloatware. Any recommendations?

I switched from µTorrent to Transmission. It’s minimal, but it gets the job done.

Yeah, Transmission would be good

If you're on Linux or MacOS I would recommend Transmission, but I can't say that I like Transmission-Qt for Windows. I've recently switched to qBittorent. If you don't like installers (like me) you can download a portable version of qBittorrent.

It's a shame that BitComet also turned into a complete POS around the same time uTorrent got bought by BitTorrent, Inc. While I like qBittorrent better than the current version of uTorrent I've been thinking of going back to version 2.2.1.25302 before it went in the shitter.

Ah yes, running OSX.
Horrible for finding a decent MAME-frontend, lovely for Transmission

uTorrent 2.2.1 new [Re: mike20599]

After that version, it's quite awful. But that version works perfect for me. No need to update.

I don't think magnet links work in that version, which is kind of a pain in the ass.

I use qBittorrent as well, and it works very nicely.
