The engine (still called Azureus) is open source the rest however isn’t. There’s a reason Vuze isn’t on this list - it used to be called Azureus & wasn't bundled with adware like Vuze is now. (actually more like a "not yet") Otherwise a great, cross-platform solution. The "hick" part comes in when you realise how barebones it is, it just doesn't have as many add-ons or features as rTorrent / Deluge do.

Where it shines is it's memory usage - it's footprint is so tiny it's been used to power torrent friendly routers. Referred to by some as "Deluge's hick cousin" Transmission is a simple Bittorrent engine first, like Deluge it can also be run as a Daemon with various frontends.

One of the many alternatives on this list that can act as a Daemon (i.e. Let me know if you have more clients to add!Įdit: the idea behind the post was to be give an objective-to-positive overview for each client and then rank them so the client at the top is better than a client at the bottom, feel free to add to the pros and cons for each, I'll work them in later App Name & download link I quickly converted this from the original (and messy) BBCode post so probably needs fiingx (yes, I'll get around to fixing the screenshots soon).
