DUckie;

No. I have not the remedy for your stupidity and total lack of seriousness in your responses.

steven;

Your response suggests that any valuable experience from any independent worker who is not linked to any corporation or organization is not valid.

If that is your way of thinking (as this seems to be), then, this is, from any point of view; having a very short vision.

Also, you deny the obvious; that in the actual world, the corporations lie all the time, according to the convenience of the situation.

Good luck for you idiot, believing blindly, without corroboration; any nonsense that corporations say.

Do you really think if uTorrent was phoning home with any sensitive information that someone would not have discovered it by now and that news would spread across the internet like wildfire?

I can name a lot of software that automatically checks for updates. It can be turned off as well if you don't want uTorrent to make any outside contact.

Are you virginal, basement dwelling and anti-social as well? If not, why are you on this blog with all the other file sharers?

I think uTorrent is the best client hands-down. It has a very small footprint (uses a low amount of resources when running and only 250KB to download, some .torrent files are larger than that), it has many features like labels and scheduler which I find very useful, it's supported and recommended by pretty much every private tracker on the internet, it's now available in beta for Mac, everything about it is great.

I'm not so happy about the Bittorrent Inc. acquisition and what could come of that in the future, but that's another thought for another day.

Never really used transmission, but have mostly Mac guys praise it.. anything in particular you like about it?

I know what you mean about watching the pieces fill up, its like you are watching something being built or… screwing the mafiaa.. one piece at a time :))

Actually, it's a bit buggy and lacking in features. It's definitely a beta. The Windows client is more sophisticated, and the Mac version doesn't even have an advanced settings page. The pieces view is also missing, which is a small thing, but it was something I liked because it was fun to watch the last piece of a file come through, or watch pieces fill up quickly when the speed is very fast. Even more worrying is that an ipfilter file cannot be loaded (the file is in the settings folder, but there's no way to activate it) and OSX's Peer Guardian program sucks.

Still, it's a clean, fast torrent client for OSX in the spirit of the original uTorrent. I imagine they'll be more or less identical by version 1.0. For now, I'm sticking with Transmission.

Actually, I can understand that only 5% of Internet users use BitTorrent. Most of the P2P users I know in RL use Limewire. I guess that's not a very scientific form of study, but there are other things out there than BitTorrent.

4 years of doing "regular technical service", one would think you would have a more firm grasp of the way statistics work.

(Note: Realistically, there is no correlation between one's experience in technical service and said person's grasp of statistics. I made it up to prove a silly point: You sir are a dumbass.)

Actually, I heard some fanbois gripeing about it a little while back… was just wondering if that had changed..

On the other hand, they could be a bit mad because Steve Jobs didnt baptize it or officially give it his blessings :))
