Hi folks
Seems qbittorrent (free of course) and no adverts seems the best torrent client around for windows -- other ones push "pro" i.e pay for versions or are riddled with links to sites you don't want.
I download Linux distros via bit torrent -- 100% legal and saves loads on servers as a lot of these are also maintained for free unlike huge commercial companies. Often quicker downloads too when a whole slew of people want to grab something new.
Perhaps Ms should look more at this method of distribution.

I've been using μTorrent for many years, but the last version 3.6.0 Build 46812 has been a bit buggy.
Other people have also reported some issues with it. I've seen some recommendations for qBittorrent, so I'll give it a try.
