    Default Bittorent Clients: which do you use?

    Simple question...s
    What bittorrent clients do you people use?
    Which do you consider the best?


    I am currently messing around with bittornado and abc.

    Bittornado is so far the simplest client i have seen and can be called a newbie thing as it has almost no features and files cant be qued in it... well at least i dont know how to do so.
    ABC is a little cooler but i am yet to start using it as heavily because i got so used to bittornado

    The use of Bittorrent clients is not exactly legal.

    Ramesh, AFAIK bittorent clients are perfectly legal in and of themselves. Many sites, such as openoffice.org, offer downloads of their files using bittorent.

    That is not true. Bittorrent is a protocol, much like FTP for example is a protocol.

    What IS illegal is using it to distribute copyrighted material. Notice that the RIAA is suing websites hosting illeagal material. But these are not the only users of the protocol. Many Linux vendors use Bittorrent to distriubute software, inlcuding the OS itself. There are also others, such as the creators of the anime series Naruto, who use bittorrent as a distribution channel.

    My bad. I forget it's used for purposes other than music and video piracy!

    I used bitcomet on my windows xp box. I kept freezing up my computer every time I try to pause a download, plus I think Azureus is much more configurable. It really kicks *** when you run it on the java's server vm. The only problem is its memory footprint, but if you have memory to spare I highly recommend it.
