Xtorrent Reviewpainful - Version: 2.0 (v83), 12/1/2009 09:09AM PST

I really liked v. 1 - then I had some issues and was convinced to upgrade to 2.0. Now it sucks - mind I didn't get Pro. I was helping a friend with her Mac and got her to buy the pro version. Her downloads get stuck too and she has to quit the app and restart it.

It's a great app in it's utility - it really does everything you need it to do and it's dead easy. But this new version has issues and the dude won't get back to you. What's with it turning up the same results no matter what you search for: Herding Code, Librivox, Blinkenlichton etc?

I don't think the price is unreasonable.

What is a better Torrent program that's this easy to use?

I made the mistake of purchasing this on the advice of a rather naive friend; it was a day later when I went looking for documentation so I could optimize the settings and -- there is none! Plus, search results have one or two relevant items mixed in with hundreds of unrelated results -- for instance, a search for old "Jack Benny" radio programs produced 70's music collections, the history of pop music, and a polish music collection. I have tried to add other torrent sites to the search engine (which has dialogue boxes to do just that) and adding the sites just doesn't work. I paid for PRO which is supposed to give you more search results and faster downloading and there is absolutely no improvement over the free version. Plus it gives you no information about who is downloading from you, how fast it's going out, what peers you're connecting to, etc. I would stay far away from this; it's useless.
