BitTorrent Client

[Armin]

What's a good, slick bit torrent client? I used to use Azureus, but it has become over-bloated as a media portal.

If you're looking for a super lightweight client, rtorrent is pretty awesome.  By itself, it's all operated through a terminal, though.  Getting used to it takes a while, but it's really nice when you do.  I has XMLRPC support and I think there are a few clients (some are even web-based) that make use of that.

If you're on windows, I think utorrent is a pretty common one.

Azureus still has classic mode, where the media layer crap isn't even loaded...

Their website is utorrent.com.  The names are used interchangeably.

Only because you can't register µtorrent.com.

No, but you can register muTorrent.com.

muTorrrent.com would confuse people.  Most people I know don't even know it's micro torrent.

Maybe, but that's irrelevant.  Most people still call it utorrent.

µtorrent it is! Seems very light-weight. Loads incredibly fast compared to classic Azureus. Thanks.

Yeah, that's why I use it. It has a lot of the stupid features that I never use but like having without (as much) bloat as Azureus, doesn't hog resources nearly as much.
