Do you use Azureus/Vuze as your main torrent client?
Can't say that I do.
I was never a fan myself.
No. I haven't even ever tried it.
Nyet :blink:
I tried few times, but couldn't get used to it. Vuze is bloated trash.
Never not even once ... uTorrent all the way
I used to, just switched to Transmission because of what/waffles. But I liked Azureus a lot more because of the advanced options and queuing system.
i tried it once but didn't like the layout and returned back to utorrent .....
No, because I just hate that HUGE and OVERLOADED Java monster. There are much better native Windows and *NIX clients.
Didnt like it. uTorrent is my baby. Besides, I think green. :D
Nope. Starting with utorrent from the beginning, like many others here.
I used it before, and I also recommended it to new torrent users.
Its interface is really simply and I will continue to recommend it to new users.
My torrent servers both run on utorrent at this point in time so I have no sweat with the vuze ban, but It was a nice linux alternative for me.
I will mark that I do use it because I have installed it multiple times and have alot of experience with the client.
Nope, I use uTorrent/rtorrent. I have tried it in the past though. The extra features don't really do much for me (that's necessary anyway).
To everyone complaining it's a bloated piece of junk: what PC do you have? I have a "decent" one (Athlon 3000+, 1.5GB RAM) and Vuze didn't slow it down at all when running.
On topic:
I used it in the past, but now it's mostly uTorrent 2.1.
I use it since I left utorrent 1.6.1 and don't have plans to switch back so soon.
I did when I first starting torrenting a few years ago. But because my computer is so ancient, Azureus would just bog down everything. But, I was planning on using it again once/if I upgraded my RAM.
Now I'm on Transmission and couldn't be happier. This is probably the lightest client I've ever used.
I feel for all the Azureus users though. Now you either have to switch, or open another client just to download from two trackers. Pretty lame...
i use only utorrent
It was my favorite, but because of what/waffles I've started using utorrent.
Yes its my favourite client
I used to. But now I use utorrent since 1.6 .
i love Azureus and i use azureus for a long long time!
Yes, I love azureus with the vuse turned off. I'm pissed that 2 major players have decided to ban the client. I am now searching for some replacement trackers. If you have any suggestions p.m. me please.
*Gets in time machine and travels to 2007* "Yes." *Travels back to 2010* No, I nixed Azureus for utorrent when I finally got tired of memory leakage.
I don't think you'll find another music tracker with the same amount of content What and Waffles have. Good luck, though.Quote:

I also use Azureus/Vuze. Have been using it since early 2004. Have tried various clients over the years but I still prefer Vuze in classic UI mode.
uTorrent & rTorrent are my favourites!
I use Vuze with Classic UI. Would be intersted in finding the best replacement for Waffles/What? as well.
Polarbear needs a shoulder to cry on coz he can't use his favourite client anymore,aww so sad, my condolences...
UT all the way.
26% so far. I'm quite impressed.
Why Cabalo? Long since out exist alternatives that use less resources and greater performance than Azureus.Quote:

Agreed.Quote:

There are other WAY BETTER alternatives to Vuze to be honest.
Tried it once... for a few hours.
It sucked so i switched back to utorrent.
Edit: It has much more options than utorrent (including some really interesting ones in the encryption field), but still it's not worth it because of the big resource usage.
Nope.
No, I tried Azureus once. It looked nice but didn't work as well as utorrent. I must have configured something wrong for sure but now I'm glad I'm still using utorrent.
