Which program is the best in your opinion and why?
Ill start, I find uTorrent to be the best simply because its
1.Simple
2.easy
3.Standalone
Iv always used this program because it simplicity; I can just let it run in background doing it job with out it stealing my recourses.
Its simple; basically not all to general purpose like the others. 

Edit: shit the poll has grammar issues -.-

I also use uTorrent and the reason are exactly the same as yours.

I personally find it the same as BitComet but uTorrent is smaller in filesize =]

[Oblivion]

I use Bitcomet, coz i wasnt satisfied with azureus and such alike, and coz with comet you can trick quite a lot

Trick people? please explain.

I didn't understand the tricking and I need a guide. Without tricking it was pure cr@p in my option.
I'll go with BitLord and my past favorite BitTornado.

>_> bleh i'm using azureus to torrent the anime file. guess time for me to use some another software for this type of things. 

[Majin]

I use azureus as well, no problems with it. Although Rogers Cable does suck, using the bit-shaping.

[Nidas]

uTorrent > Transmission > BitTornado > all

/thread.

[Majin]

I used Utorrent, but it slows down my computer more the azureus and gets less download speed.

[ï ® têh ©få©ê]

wow thats odd UT never slows me down unless gaming and getting speeds of 800kps.
Altho good speeds pisses me off since i might have to turn off the game for a few mins =/
Anyone wish to donate some ram? 

[MitSuki1110]

I use Transmission..
and I love it.^-^

[omg_baka]

  i use bittornado..and um..lets see, its slow but then its fast. WIERD!! okay! but at times there would be people seeding but i wouldn't be downing anything!! Don't know why cuz i just started using it.....cuz this is my sis old comp. and so she had it here and i just used it so yea.

Unless the torrent is well seeded, that's perfectly normal torrent behaviour. Just something you have to deal with, especially when downloading large files on a poorly seeded torrent. If a torrent has, say, 50 seeds+ and you're still having problems, its more likely to be a problem with your ISP or local network than it is your torrent client

[shara]

well in the past,i have used bitcomet,bittorent,azureus, n utorrent
n i can say that utorrent really is the best torrent client for me...since it don have much crap application n very user friendly
but now i rarely use torrent,most anime i'll just DDL

[Pho_Enix]

its all about utorrent... small in size and still does the job.

[KSking]

I used to use bittornado for some time. I think it's slow when you start it and then catches up speed. It will go fast in the end. Anyway I think bittornado had a window for every single download so I suggest going for bitlord. It's cute and unlike bitcomet it doesn't require hacking to get started with downloading. I've tried out bitcomet and all so far none of my downloads started, so I just closed it.

[mysticangel]

hmm! should i try it aswell since my torrent stuff is pretty slow

[Reactive]

Weird, BitComet worked fine for me, 1.5 years ago when I was using it. For now I use ?Torrent which is the greatest lightweight, featureplenty torrent client out there ;)

[ï ® têh ©få©ê]

lol how did you do the "?"?

[KSking]

Alt + combination of numbers on numbad. Like ? = Alt + 0134

[ï ® têh ©få©ê]

i know but witch numbers -.-'

[KSking]

I don't know the numbers but I helped as much as I could.

[Pho_Enix]

the combination keys are Alt+0181

??????????????????????????????????????

you can always find out from Microsoft Word 

[KSking]

lol nice ASCII art... you obviously practice huh? heheheheh... 

[KSking]

It comes pretty much naturally. I've done it alot in msn out of boredom.

[Pho_Enix]

so you even made .gif ones too? 

[KSking]

Erm. I haven't done .gif ones. Those take too much time :P                                         

[mysticangel]

even it take a lot of time but i think .gif stuff can be pretty cute

[ï ® têh ©få©ê]

  now that i remember it i cant do the "u" thing since im on a laptop 

[mysticangel]

hey cface, you not the only one who on the labtop i'm on aswell.
i can't even torrent on mind labtop had to use main computer for that stuff now a day

[ï ® têh ©få©ê]

  I cant even use my main computer as a server no more its full!!! 

[Pho_Enix]

now that i remember it i cant do the "u" thing since im on a laptop 

really? can't you use the "fn" key to use the numpad?

[ï ® têh ©få©ê]

  i just noticed theres a number pad with the purple fn letters. i don't see me using it any time soon though. (its all lopsided and shit)

Bingo, every single reason why I like it and use it as well

[BlockHead]

I use Bitcomet but VERSION 0.70 the others sucks. (ads, useless adds, ram eater)

[Reactive]

A group of Generally detested and detestable cheating clients sharing the same base core programming.

Bit - Comet

Bit - Lord

Bit - Spirit

Yes, ladies and gentlemen, this is BitVomit.

I've seen many uploaders, warn the users that they'll ban their ip's if they use one of those 3 clients. In my opinion, and in many bittorrent specialists, Azureus and µTorrent are the best out there.

[BlockHead]

It's maybe the same base core, but the interface change. For me the one of bitcomet is good. It's just a point of view. If they add some extensions or themes to aza or others maybe i'll chang but until that day. Noo!

[Sensei-kun]

Bitcomet is the best for me, used it the first time and never stopped using it

I use 0.60, and Bitcomet is best for me since you can choose the max for your Up and Dl speeds, and since my upload speed is very slow, and then even divided in 3 I can't give to much...

also since I'm on a wireless conncection if my Dl speed goes up to high my connection dies

a few more reasons why I like Bitcomet is because of the info it gives, like trackers, general Up/Dl speeds, how long the torrent has been running, the tracker, info about the peers/seeders and some more

I also like the Statics where you can see how much you've Downloaded/Upload in total, atm it's 1,5 Tb download and 450 Gig upload, and had my laptop reinstalled 2 times before, so if you count the statics of those bitcomets up aswell it'd probably be around 2,5 Tb Download and 1,25 Tb Upload

bitcomet also has a build-in chat, not that I use it, wait, I used it once, had a nice talk with some Bleach Fans

[W.Wolf]

I use BitComet, it was the only one I found back in the day that could get through all the security and bandwidth limiters my old school had set up and I've stuck with it ever since.

[darksquall82]

I'm using azureus.
Why ?
... it's the first one i tried and stick with it for some years now ... just too lazy to try another one 

[KSking]

Well, bitLord is the one for me and will stay as it.
I have tried bitcomet but it ended up being a total ****.
utorrent is probably nothing BETTER than any other torrent system so I'm staying with bitlord.
I can easily remove trackers and have control over files (really, when it comes to being easy then there's nothing better than bitlord), I can have my home language (I think) and the interface is really simple but cool.

so is µTorrent's :D

[Sosodo]

I switched to uTorrent but the new Azureus looks pretty flashy

[dl.GET]

Utorrent for light downloads such as new weekly manga releases, and Azureus  for large files over the size of 1GB+.

[mysticangel]

well now i use  Bitlord for a weekly anime that came out and sometime using for manga and music too
i'm still using Azureus for large files as well.

[raysan]

well I use Azureus and it never tends to fail in speed cept dead files...

How about Bitcomet .92? I tried using Bitlord and the download reach 100% and it still won't stop, it say connecting to something... (I forgot)
