Do you use Azureus/Vuze?

No, I only use utorrent

Yes I have, and guess what? It's not shit.

I ran a stereotyped resourced intensive application on a computer with 11 year old CPU, with 512mbyte of ram, and it... ran fine. No freezing, no errors, didn't hog all my ram like some make it out to do...

I use utorrent about 4-5 years now. Never used azureus.

My question is: What azureus offers that utorrent doesn't?

The result clearly shows that Azureus still is the second most popular client.

One third use it as their main client which is far more than I expected.

Bearing in mind that by human nature people are far more likely to read this thread (or bother voting) if they do use Vuze rather than don't. I've never seen the stats from any torrent site that suggest that Vuze has 25% of the market share.

It's also worth noting that the percentage of Vuze users is far greater on public trackers as several of their features and plugins are tailored with public trackers in mind.

What exactly was the point of this? I assumed initially you were going to show these stats to What/Waffles in some attempt to get the ban appealed but I doubt it'd do much good at this point in time.
