Swad Posted August 24, 2006 Share Posted August 24, 2006 For those who are still longing for the perfect OS X torrent app... well, you'll probably have to wait a little longer. Azureus 2.5 was released a couple of days ago, however, and after playing with it, I'll have to say it's an improvement over previous Universal builds. One of the best features is the ability to - gasp! - open a torrent by clicking on it from your desktop. Seriously. It's in the changelog. For those needing a little more power than what Transmission can give (along with a little less RAM), the app of the blue frog may be the answer. Azureus is free and can be downloaded from SourceForge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Technobob Posted August 25, 2006 Share Posted August 25, 2006 Yesterday they just released a new beta, something tells me that they are having issues with 2.5.0.0 given the beta was released only 2 days later, nothing in the changelog yet so don't know what they are working on.

brewno Posted August 25, 2006 Share Posted August 25, 2006 Hmm... I guess I`ll keep on using Bits on Wheels... Even if its not Universal, strangely enough it works faster for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
