What a shame the state of torrent client development has come to. Several bad clients have been released in the past couple months that I would rather leave unnamed, but spyware is the worst. What’s worse is these sites advertising it.

Don’t be thrown by this if you’re new to torrents. The good torrent communities in general remain strong as they ban these clients. So, get a client we recommend(not this one, no private community would recommend this) and enjoy sharing with your mates. Torrents are still worthwhile despite this explosion of bad clients.

“The grammatical errors on the site tell us that BitRoll isn’t developed in the United States or any other English speaking country.”

Pfft. Your average American teenager knows what grammar is? This is a joke, right?

Damn shame! I actually believe that the targetpoint people are behind this program (don’t ask me how I just know). Anyways damned be the ones who advertise this program. I can’t believe snarf-it decided to get a piece of that cake, especially since they started a war last year against meganova for having usenext ads (which is spyware free). It’s a total shame that they use their name to misinform people just to make a quick buck.
