I've never even used a torrenting service before, Don't most people only use them to pirate things?

wait is this talking about piracy

you do realize utorrent isn't just used for piracy, i first installed it to torrent Black Mesa because it was easier to download that way.

Generally it's for huge files. Like if you wanted to download a huge ISO for an install disk or some stuff.

oh and to add, all of you should be using the 2.2.1 version of uTorrent already, after that version it became horribly bloated with ads etc.

You can actually disable the advertisements in the settings

qBittorrent is good, I prefer Transmission (on Linux/Mac) or Transmission-Qt (Windows). \

i use qt on all my computers; it's pretty fast

dont torrent then?

Why reject the protocol because one implementation of it is bad?
That's like saying you shouldn't use web browsers just because IE7 exists.

don't use utorrent then is what you mean
Utorrent isn't even the center of torrenting software

[Renousim]

It's a good thing I never update my software.
