What is the best Torrent client?

[Dos_Box]

What are people using for their Bit Torrent client? I need to install one, but want to ensure I don't get anything 'iffy'.

Utorrent?

[TopBanana]

I use Utorrent, have done for years and its by far the best client out there

[sister_annex]

I use uTorrent speed is generally good, supports UDP TCP and Magnet links also

uTorrent for Windows and Transmission for Mac. Boo-yah!

I used Vuze until recently, I seemed to get slightly better speeds than with uTorrent, and it acted as a media bridge to my PS3 so I could watch my (legally, of course!) downloaded movies on the telly. Just lately though it's been crashing on me too regularly for me to put up with it, so I'm back to uTorrent

Have been using Vuze since it was Azureus. Never found fault with it but might take a look at utorrent.

Same here, but since the last update it's been hellish for me. uTorrent is good, I do miss all the extra features of Vuze though!

For PS3 Streaming try this - ps3mediaserver - Project Hosting on Google Code

 

found it fairly robust, and it does transcoding for files the PS3 can't play :-)

Cheers I'll take a look.

 

I tend to use XBMC now though with a huge HDMI cable from my PC directly to the TV, because I have an android app that acts as a remote control, it's preety nifty

 

EDIT:

I know I mis-typed pretty, but I'm going to leave it as it is, because I like it.

Opera is about as non-dodgy as you can get, with the added advante it's got a pretty well integrated web browser! Opera web browser | Faster & safer | Download the latest Internet browser free
