Thanks I haven't hear of that. And it is written in C++ which is nice.

Is it considered the spiritual successor to the original uTorrent?

it is:

>The qBittorrent project aims to provide an open-source software alternative to µTorrent.

though in my experience it is more of a memory hog and buggier than utorrent. but that doesn't stop me from using it

I've switched to transmission client and never looked back (4 yrs ago)

It's nowhere near as perfect as utorrent once was. But it's pretty good and I have plenty of extra memory (it's currently using 305mb while seeding 40+ torrents, dropping down to 65mb if I pause them all.)

I wouldn't be surprised if qbittorrent predates uTorrent; Wikipedia says it dates to 2006. But it wasn't popular on windows until uTorrent started doing dodgy things.

I love qtorrent. They even have built in torrents search for various sites like TPB and Linux isos ;)
