Warning if you use utorrent to download your video games:
The latest version of utorrent contains a bitcoin miner.
http://www.trustedreviews.com/news/utorrent-silently-installing-bundled-bitcoin-mining-software
inb4 just use an old version
Outdated utorrent clients contain a number of vulnerabilities.
http://www.cvedetails.com/vulnerability-list/vendor_id-6117/Utorrent.html
Deluge or qbittorrent are good alternatives and have a similar UI.

I'm not into torrenting at all, what's the best alternative?

People haven't all moved on to qbitorrent or deluge at this point? Doesn't everyone know utorrent is shit by now?
>>285874353
Qbittorrent here too.
I still use utorrent, why shouldn't I? It works fine jesus christ tin foil faggots
This almost look like a thread made by uTorrent's competitors to shit on it.

Those that still use utorrent might have heard it was good at one point (which it was) but don;t know how shitty it is and likely update every time.
>>285874771
Except uTorrent has been shit for years. If you honestly still use it, excluding the pre-2.2 version or whatever, you're retarded.
>>285874796
>implying it was bait you fucking fag
>>285874875
I noticed Tixati downloading on average slower than qbittorrent on the same downloads. Not exactly sure what could have been causing that. I think I had the same ports marked as open.
>>285875020
how shitty it is now*
my only, and literally my ONLY issue with qbitorrent is that it can only seem to remember the last 8 or so file paths I've used for torrents.
And when you download a lot of different anime/toku each week, some of the remembered paths are missing and I have to manually select the folder I want it saved to.
>>285874925

>>285874353
Like what? Qbittorrent and Deluge are the best clients.
How about not installing it?
What exactly is wrong with utorrent besides the stuff OP posted ?

what? Im using it right now as Im typing this to torrent from exhentai
>>285875226
Not even that guy, but namedropping without explaining why it's better doesn't really help your case.
>>285873102
The article you linked says that this bitcoin miner isn't silently installed, you have to accept it during installation. I tested it myself and there's nothing.

So far they gets the job done.
>>285875360
qbittorrent is not an fbi honeypot (utorrent is) like torrent, plus it doesn't have bit coin shit installed on it.
>have µtorrent 2.0.4
My biggest problem with Deluge is the fact it can't read torrent files with moonrunes in them. Also, it defaults to the system's language with no way to change the language in the options menu. This client is a weeaboo's nightmare.
What's a bitcoin miner?
>>285875310
The thing OP posted conflicts with the article he posted.

>>285875387
The installation for it is deceptive and meant to get non-techie people to hit 'accept'. I mean 2/3s of the installation process for utorrent is unchecking bundled spyware installations and shit, so that should be reason enough to not use utorrent.
>>285875558

>Deluge, qbittorrent, Azereus and Tixati are all fine.
Deluge is bloated GTK+ garbage.
Azereus doesn't exist anymore, it's called Vuze now. Also, Vuze is bloated Java garbage.
Tixati has an awful interface and is garbage because it's not accepted at many private trackers due to its ability to client spoof.
The only good client you listed was qBittorrent.
>>285876394
I haven't tried Deluge, but I switched from uTorrent to qbitt about a year ago and I can recommend it.
It works nicely, and if you can figure out how to use uTorrent (not that it's hard) then you can figure out qBitt.

Actually I just jumped ship because at least at the time CCCP wasn't supporting 10bit, don't know if it does now. Also better subtitles rendering, CCCP still does that wacky shit that renders the subtitle in the video canvas making it a blurry mess when you go fullscreen. But again, I don't know how CCCP is now, maybe things changed, but I'm happy with Kawaii so I'm sticking with it. It updates more regularly as well.

Is Qbittorrent ACTUALLY better or is it just something you guys say? Because I tried using it once and it wouldn't download fucking anything. None of my torrents worked with it

Goddamn it, she's my daughterfu. I shouldn't be feeling this way. I should be feeling disappointment.

i like how utorrent organized the files though
People still use uTorrent after that one update that filled it with adware and ate up 90% of your CPU even on a quad core?

4/10 be more subtle next time
You've got a good foundation going but you need more subtlety
I use uTorrent,will uninstall
But all these guys saying nobody uses utorrent,
What do you use? Genuine question. I'm going to need a replacement for uTorrent anyway
