Personally I just use the experimental if you know how to use, it works just great.
If it aint broke dont fix it.

BitTorrent-experimental-S-5.2-w32install.exe is the one I am currently using.

I got it from suprnova.org btw... its very nice. a newer version of the old experimental. it allows you to pause, which is great for me, say im seeding, or dling, and i want to play counter strike, i can just pause, and then resume after, instead of re opening, and rechecking the file again, etc, etc...

You are telling me you don't like to play counter-strike while all of you upload is being used up? Isn't a high ping a good thing? :D

I use the experimental one too. Also got it from supernova.org

Hmm...Maybe I should try the experimental then :D

But seriously though - The official is fine with me. BitTorrent is unique to me in that it's the only P2P software which I haven't felt the need to get another edition than the original to use on a network. (e.g. KL for FastTrack, eMule for Sharedonkey. Closest to that fact is Soulseek - But I use Isle as well as the original).

I think most people's trust in the experimental has shattered this debate...and damn right it should B)

I use Burst R3 because the minimum upload speed you can set for each torrent is 10KBs, which is a great idea imo.

PTC was good for a week or so until it didnt like my tracker, not sure why though but wouldnt work at all, also you can set the upload speed as low as 1KBs which imo is just harmful to the whole idea of bittorrent.

I have downloaded azureas(sp) as this is supposed to be very good, but havnt installed it yet as i dont have java installed on here and cant be bothered to register for it :lol:

Ive also tried the new experimental version but didnt like it as much as Burst R3. fair enough the burst download window is a dos box but you can hide it completely from view so its next to the clock. i just think that Burst is the best all round torrent client at the minute.

Hey you an archaeologist ? anyways you should be aiming for it from now on. You seem to be really talented in digging up very old items. especially threads like these :D

Damn this thread is ancient. Brings back good memories though... look at the client being used back then compared to the ones available nowadays.
