Haha, good bye uTorrent. It's been real.

Enter: New light torrent client alternative.

BT clients are a dime a dozen.

Don't be surprised if they release an ad-free version and expect you to pay for it.

I prefer transmissionbt over Deluge. Runs on everything known to man : Windows; Linux, Mac OS, BSDs, Solaris... I have it installed on my PC, my homeserver, my Wifi router, my ISP box and my phone. It could even runs on a Toaster with NetBSD

I've been using a older version for the longest time because I didn't like the style of the latest version, from green to purple. I'm still using uTorrent 3.1.3 and it still works fine.

Awesome! I uninstalled uTorrent on 2 PCs and filled out their survey, I guess the responses got to them. Its too late though, Transmission-QT works great. I will not be returning to uTorrent.
