I've used the "standard" client. Which I didn't find very good to be honest, quite bad as far as usability goes. So I switched to pretty much the first client I could find which handled multiple downloads well, that client happened to be BT++, which was an okay client I guess, better than the standard one at any rate.

But then suddenly one day BT++ stopped working. So I started looking for a new client. For me it came down to either Azureus or ABC. I went with ABC, becuase java apps which have GUIs tend to be rather sluggish. I didn't check to find out if that was the case with Azureus, but I just couldn't be bothered.

ABC is a nice client, based on BitTornado actually. You can get it here.

I use Azureus because it's for Windows and Linux and vice versa. It's also made w/ Java :P I like it alot because I can limit the upload speed so I get better download speed. Plus, I will use less bandwidth w/ my 3.0 MBPS. I really need the 5.0 MBPS soon! (Yes, Canada does have 5.0 MBPS dl and 800 KBPS ul for residential internet)xboxrulz

hello guys i think most of us know about torrent, i just like to know which torrent manager to be use for downloading.. as of now im using Utorrent.


I use Shareaza. It's free, open source, and has no spyware or adware. Anyone else who needs a clean, free P2P client can get it at http://www.shareaza.com/

removed the query string in the off chance this was a referral of some sort.

utorrent is clean and free too, and I'm pretty sure it's open source too. I use utorrent and am pretty happy with it; though, my downloads are slow, but I think its because of my internet and router.

I also use Azureus and yes it really does cut back on the bandwidth compared to most torrents. I know it used to be the one that took up the most but still had the fastest download speed, but now with the new scripts I am assuming, it has cut back on the bandwidth usage immensly. I suggest getting this to anyone who downloads torrents, especially more than one at a time. I have gotten movies, series, etc. all from this program because of how quickly it goes. Though, it also does depend on how many seeds/peers you have, but for the most part this will give you the best connection/download speed. I think it is due to the fact that it runs on Java.

Anyway, I agree with you xboxrulz that Azureus an awesome torrent program to use!

i use uTorrent to get stuff that i want. i've used BitTorrent before but i was totally clueless about torrents and torrent clients before so i discontinued the usage. i was introduced to uTorrent by my classmate in my database class when we did our overnights at their home. at that time i only had a dial-up connection at home so you could imagine the speed i'm getting when i download albums. if i remember correctly, the very first album i've successfully downloaded using a torrent client is the album of carrie underwood. i've downloaded it before using kazaa but i lost the copy because of the virus i got after using kazaa. when we subscribed for a dsl connection, the first album i downloaded was the live album of dishwalla.i don't know about the download connection though. i rarely check it. as long as i see seeders, i'm fine with it :) the cost of monthly dsl subscription is P999 i think so that would cost around US$20-$25, which is added to our monthly phone fees.
