BitTorrent is a torrent client that has more than twenty millions downloads up to date and they prove that the tool is a trustworthy application that can deal with torrent files with ease. Although many torrents fall into the category of illegally distributed content, there are also a number of various companies that share their software through torrent files. Using such a client is advised in order to attain faster speeds than with other download methods, such as downloading directly using the browser.

This application seems to be totally different from the past installments and there are a lot of features that have been added. Interestingly enough, the torrent client now also features a basic media player that allows users to watch videos or listen to music that was downloaded through torrents, without the aid of another media player. A user can now also choose which files he wants to download from the whole torrent and he can also set up the maximum download or upload speeds that he allows for a certain torrent in the list. The bandwidth allocation can be also set according to one’s needs and possibilities.

A user can customize a lot of settings of the tool and he can also provide a scheduled table that the application will use in order to use the internet at different rates throughout the day. Downloads can be saved wherever the user wants and uploads can be also performed at the same time with the downloads or after this process has ended. The installation kit of the tool has also shrunk drastically, the newest one having only 1 MB in size. The Search bar is another new feature that allows users to search for various content types in order to find preferred movies or songs that can be downloaded with the aid of BitTorrent.
