I actually use acquisition for my torrents. I just downloaded a video (legal video) at over 1MB/second. I took a screenshot because I was so amazed at the speeds I'm getting:
Downloaded 800megs in about 13 minutes.
I'm not sure if it has anything to do with generous seeders or the fact that I am using acquisition, but I like it.

Oh right i didnt know you could use Acquistion for Torrents - I will just use that then, maybe your connection is awesome - Whats your connection?

I actually have a 6meg down, and usually my max download is at around 600kb/sec. I have no idea why it was going so much faster.

holy **** dude, you're right. i knew BT was built into the new acquisition but I hadn't tried it. Ahh..bit torrent with the simplicity of Acquisition - perfect
i download acquisition, trial version, and it seems like the BT part isn't working for me...or at least its not going fast at all...do i have to open up any ports on my hub?asif786 said:holy **** dude, you're right. i knew BT was built into the new acquisition but I hadn't tried it.

I go back and forth between the standard bittorrent client and acquisition.
BTW, I just registered my copy of acquisition...i get a lot better speeds now with regular p2p stuff (haven't tried torrents yet) and and no more stupid dock bouncing nonsense every 15 minutes.

I don't do much bittorent, but I started using this program which, so far, I like.
Simple, fast, and best of all: free.

With that you mean they are working on a Mac version, right?Mac_Freak said:
Excellent!
Full blown BitTorrent client in ~115KB, that will be great...!
I think it's funny how the most often downloaded item with LimeWire is...Cfg5 said:
LimeWire Pro
transmission for me. does what's it's supposed to do very well. low resource and cpu usage, and very stable and interface is very good,
you double click on a .torrent file and you can chose it to always automatically download to a folder, or always ask. handy feature it has,
now using 0.4 with it's dock and app icon changed to official bittorrent.
