Sick Bow Posted December 29, 2016 I mean if it's working for you, why change? Don't fix it if it aint broke. I use uTorrent, but I don't use torrents very often. Never had any issues, minus the advertisements in the bottom left. 0 Share this post Link to post
Clonehunter Posted December 29, 2016 Didn't uTorrent turn into some ad free for all with a pay wall? I something something happening to it. SOmething with viruses even. I use qBittoorent. Very easy to use and fairly easy to navigate. 0 Share this post Link to post
Remilia Scarlet Posted December 29, 2016 qbittorrent and (on Linux) ktorrent are both my preferred programs. They're straight-forward, open source, and offer a nice amount of features. 0 Share this post Link to post

AndrewB Posted December 29, 2016 You can disable ads within utorrent. Google can help with that, takes about 2 minutes. I just make a habit of shutting it down when not using it. 0 Share this post Link to post

Wild Dog Posted December 29, 2016 Utorrent, i have the free version and the ads are in the program, under lower part. Not annoying at all. 0 Share this post Link to post
Varis Alpha Posted December 29, 2016 Deluge is pretty good. i used to use uTorrent for a long time, but the intrusive ads turned me away from the whole experience. 0 Share this post Link to post
Pencil of Doom Posted December 29, 2016 qBittorrent, although i use Utorrent, i rarely use it, even though i just ignore the ads whenever i use it. 0 Share this post Link to post

Avoozl Posted January 1, 2017 At least there is options for disabling ads on utorrent with the advanced settings. 0 Share this post Link to post
