uTorrent (Mac) Vs. Azureus (Mac)

[Deleted member 651465]

uTorrent will be available on the Mac very soon and two weeks ago we wrote an early review. Today we read that anonymous statistics show that uTorrent will be twice as fast as Azureus, but is this really the case?

I'm quite fond of Transmission, but for the Windows crowd then this could prove a hit!

Also, here's a link for the sneak-peek at the Mac Version of uTorrent

Looks pretty good, much lighter compared to Azureus.

Although I think I will continue using Transmission as it does what I need.

Just found this, and was hoping that uTorrent would be out soon and I could update the thread in the coming days/weeks

Transmission lacks DHT, Encryption, blocklist support/downloading and RSS Feed support. If uTorrent Mac has all of those i'll be extremely happy

yay, hate using Az, much prefer uTorrent.

Hopefully as good as windows one atleast

I can't wait to use it.

Now, if he decides to cook up a Linux-native version I might just pass out from the pure joy. O if only it was GPL'd!

can't wait for this to come out, bored of using bloated and limited Mac Bit Torrent clients.

Transmission all the way, i love it, works really well.

Oh well, Transmission does what I need

Just a bit of a bummer for those who wanted to use it

All is not lost.

I got uTorrent running very nicely using Darwine/X11/Fink today. After a bit of tinkering I managed to get anti-aliased TrueType fonts too.

I love Transmission but it just isn't suitable at the moment without packet encryption to get round the nasty shaping my ISP does

I just did that as well, E1mo - any idea how to enable left click on there? ctrl-click doesn't seem to want to play ball

I didn't try Ctrl-Click initially as I was using the newer Macs trackpad right click (two finger + click) which oddly works fine. Not sure why good old fashoined Ctrl-Click doesnt work.
