Editor's Review of Azureus

If you're interested in file sharing of media and other types of files, the best peer-to-peer protocol is the BitTorrent protocol. But the BitTorrent program itself leaves much to be desired. So if you're a file-sharer dissatisfied with your current BitTorrent client, give the free Azureus a try.

It's exceedingly easy to use, but offers features for advanced users as well as Torrent newbies. You'll be able to handle multiple torrent downloads, and limit upload and download speeds, either globally for the entire program, or per torrent. There's also a very useful fast resume feature. And if you want to extend the program's features, there are plenty of plug-ins, such as the nifty Autospeed that automatically adjusts your upload and download speeds, according to your current bandwidth.

One particularly nice feature of this program is that when you install it, you can either specify whether you want to use the beginner, intermediate, or advanced features, and you can later on change the interface as you gain more experience.

Note: You'll need to have Java installed on your PC in order for this program to work.
