    List of the 5 Best Torrent P2P software ever

    Choosing a torrent client can be a pain in the butt and a tad confusing, especially when you're using Linux or Mac. It's especially hard to get support when your downloads are slow or your "ports need forwarding". So sometimes it's nice to try something new when you are tired of your old Torrent app and are looking for something fresh. Personally, I am tired of BitTorrent and I decided to try some of these other clients and they are all pretty damn neat! List after the break...

     

    5. Bit Comet

    BitComet is a fast and easy-to-use BitTorrent/HTTP/FTP download client. It is P2P file-sharing freeware and one of the most popular P2P protocols designed for high-speed distribution. BitComet supports simultaneous downloads, DHT networks (trackerless), a download queue, selected downloads in the Torrent package, fast-resume, disk caching, speed limits, auto port mapping, proxies, and IP filtering.

    4. Transmission

    Transmission is a Mac and Linux only torrent client that is not only one of the best torrent clients for Mac and Linux, but it is about the only one that anyone knows about. Its free (of course) and open source. It claims to use fewer resources than other clients and full encryption, DHT, and PEX support.

    3. Deluge 

    Deluge is a full-featured BitTorrent client for Linux, OS X, Unix and Windows. It uses libtorrent in it's backend and features multiple user-interfaces including: GTK+, web and console. It has been designed using the client server model with a daemon process that handles all the bittorrent activity.

    2. uTorrent

    uTorrent is probably one of the best Torrent clients ever, being super light weight, easy to use and really simple to install. It is frequently updated and is a standard for anyone who knows how to torrent. It has a huge community of users and great support everywhere, even on their own site.
