Re: Utorrent bought by MPAA

people do not use utorrent anymore
it's evil the creator is mpaa,riaa
they did it so they would know who exactly is your ip
very clever, they have hackers working with them
i'm not surprised by this news
i knew it all along, ur had it coming u u utorrent braggers
go back to using bitcomet, azureus or bittornado
those are the best and will remain the best
LAWL @ this post.

From the link, I got that the µTorrent's parent company "cooperated" with the MPAA by removing certain links from their website. I don't see anywhere where it is said that the MPAA now owns µTorrent or BitTorrent Inc.

i'm not talking about 100 percent file thought so dunno what i'm talking about. try something less then 100 percent.
btw i did not use 4 different client, only 3 and that's probably already too complicated for most ppl
i think u use utorrent exclusive thats why u have no ideas what i'm talking about. i've used many other clients as well ya know but they just keep perishing like torrentstorm, abc etc.. so many experiments not one client is perfect. why so many client you say? well i like flexibility, and because each client has its weakness and strength.

Umm, so who exactly uses 4 different BT clients anyways?

Of course you're going to get some rollbacks if you download the file from Client A and then hashcheck it on Client B. The most I've ever experienced with uTorrent is that it rolls my 100% completed file to 99.7%. Wow.

let me explain that again..
if ur just using utorrent exclusively u will have clue of what i am talking about
if u use utorrent,azur,bittornado,bitcomet
u will find that utorrent is incompatible with other client when resuming an incomplete file
so in order to use utorrent, u have to download from scratch
otherwise it will mess up your incomplete file
azur has a feature that if it's bitcomet incomplete file it will fix a few bytes so you get the full percentage
with bittornado you lose a few percentage but not a big deal
ex. at 80% incomplete from bitcomet going to bittornado, it will drop to 78%

i'm sorry if this is too complicated for you but i have explain it as best i can.

serious problems with utorrent..
when rehash from an incomplete from bitcomet or bittornado
the percent download drop in half! wtf???
then when i rehash again with bitcomet or bittornado
it remain that way
ex i download at 50percent..with bitcomet,bittornado
rehashing again with utorrent
drop to 25 percent...it's evil and not flexible designed to frustrat u has hidden flaws bad bad bad client, i rarely use and today will not be using it at all.
this happens with any torrent as i have experienced

reply to Ancalagon
are u saying that if someone upload a private torrent to a site such as mininova.org
meganova.org
bitenova.dl torrentportal.com datorrents.com etc
someone who is not a member can leech off from it freely
as if it's a public torrent
now that's funny

Is there a client patch that can change the client info sent to the tracker? I really love the speeds i get with utorrent.
If you're wiling to go through the extra trouble, get Privoxy. It's a free HTTP proxy software and can change the http headers sent to the tracker.

Stick to uTorrent 1.6
That is what I am doing. As long as bitmetv does not ban utorrent v1.6 I will still keep on using it.

Exactly, Bitcomet ignored the private flag and allowed the DHT network on private torrents. It did a bunch of other stuff too but I can't remember now.

Bitcomet was banned for not allowing private flag (always sharing with public which private trackers do not like).

Bitcomet needs to make a come back. I never got why some sites banned it. Far as I know most sites banned it cause of the DHT network but hell utorrent has it too so WTF was the point? It seemed more to me one of the big sites banned it so the little ones followed suit cause the big bad cool site banned it.

Azureus I hate it's takes way to much ram. Also with azureus I have a hard time surfing while running torrents with utorrent and bitcomet I never have that issue.

I think utorrent will still be safe but being as you can run it without a install it's prefect for movie downloads you click a file and boom the program loads up and your torrent starts.

Also how does this bit torrent paying shit work? Do you download a DRM movie or whatever file and use your own bandwidth to give it to other people?

Nah I use Windows. It was more of a kneejerk comment, but at the same time it is kinda true in the sense that at least with open source no code can hide itself.

There's only a few private trackers that are banning it (BitmeTV I think is one of the more prominent ones), OiNK, Torrent-Damage, and others allow it. It's a big case of tin foil hatting, it doesn't report your data to the MPAA, you won't get sued, it's not selling out your IP.

Is 1.61 the same or is 1.6 the last "safe" option.

Guess which one I am using
