Title: So, why is uTorrent better than BitTorrent?
Post by: Lotos on June 20, 2009, 11:33:23 AM
I've heard that it is, but don't know exactly why.  Anyone want to explain to me?  giggle;

From my understanding, ,µTorrent is supposed to be a lightweight client that is pretty much a straight forward torrent client that isn't bloated with extra stuff, but idk.

I have the inbuilt version of transmission, it's sorta nice, but I don't know its capabilities. Is the inbuilt blocklist good enough?

I always used peerguardian2 + blocklist manager + uTorrent combination and got fantastic results for windows.

From my knowledge, there are only three minor differences between BitTorrent and uTorrent:
1. The logo
2. The search box accesses a different web site
3. It uses different folder locations on your computer

They really are exactly the same thing. The interface is the same, the options are the same, the button images are the same, etc. It's just a rebranding.
I use BitTorrent because I like its logo better n_u

Oh, by the way, Kilroy of NSFCD showed my this addon

https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/11243

The site's considered a malware site, probably because it skips the wait time.  Ruining their business spam;
