Why would you use a closed source BitTorrent client? And why would you use software with ads when there's just as good software without?
This is a big deal for users of uTorrent:

Tell your friends about Deluge, qBittorrent, Transmission today.

@forteller Will check out Deluge, I got scared off using Transmission for my Mac after they were serving malware bundled downloads twice in 12 months.
As for why? I think a lot of uTorrent users came from when it *was* tiny (<1MB), fast, and didn't have any adware.
Most of them probably just continued using it out of habit.
@forteller I use Transmission on all of my machines..love it!!
@forteller is bittorrent still widely used besides by linux geeks ?
