Azureus 3.0.5.2 has been released and is now allowed.

Please upgrade if you are using version 3.0.5.0 as that version will be banned in the next few days.

Many thanks and happy tv watching

And I thought that only utorrent had problems with constant updates, versions banned etc...

Bitmetv and its strict rules, a deadly combo

I guess it is mostly done to stop users from using cheating tools which basically simulate these old clients.

Why post this here? So everybody can speculate and make judgments of a statement that doesnt affect them. It seems to me every member got a PM.

They did not ban 2.5.0.4 and this is the only client that has been around for ages that doesnt need to be updated. hdbits have made a crucial mistake by banning 2.5.0.4 most people using that client are not going to switch for them. I can think of 2 other that have made the same mistake but quickly justified it after seeing the backlash. Untill the top sites make a move it's not recommended to ban perfectly good client.
