uTorrent is AMAZING!

[RESmonkey]

I was too lazy once Azureus got gay with Vuze and that whole fiasco. Tried uTorrent, I'm in awe. Works so efficiently, fast, and doesn't lag my comp.

I like azureus.

 

[ForumMaster]

the best torrent client i have ever used without a doubt.

 

[kermalou]

I like that I can throttle the download/upload so that during the day its barely running and then at night it goes full power.

it's so slow though. I just switched from azureus because of vuze, but now it's so freaking slow. am i doing something wrong?

Nope, it's actually very fast (depending on your connection speed) and easy on the system. Here's a link to a list of guides to help set your uTorrent programme up:

No, actually, get Azureus and turn off the shitty vuze dashboard,
turn on classic interface and enable advanced options,

then you have a bitorrent client.

Azureus without vuze FTW!

utorrent v1.6.1 ftw

 

[matas]

what do you guys use utorrent for? What can you legally download?

 

[lxskllr]

Linux distros, files to friends, legal music and video. It's nice because resource utilization is decentralized. That keeps any one party from shouldering the entire cost for distributing a file.

There are tons of legal things you can use BitTorrent P2P protocol for. The fact that hardly no one ever does is completely beside the point!

Why you always gotta see the 'bad'? Land mines can make excellent door stops, too, you know, just gotta make sure the door doesn't hit the wrong place. Think outside the box, man!

When I ran a small website, all of the download files were in torrent form. My slow 50kb/s connection hosted the torrent tracker, and a few of my friends helped out by seeding every file with me. Overall it worked great.

While a lot of companies are slow to get on the torrent bandwagon, lots of users are pushing this project along. No more 2 hour waits on File Planet, head over to game updates and see if there's a torrent for it. A while ago, I vaguely remember downloading a windows service pack from a torrent site because Microsoft's website was slow as hell.

Game mods, demos.

utorrent is pretty sweet. I was using peer guardian, but seems to have stopped working - is there something like it that mates well with utorrent?
