Product Platform: MacOSX

Used Product For: Less than a month

Recommend Product: YES

This makes the official BitTorrent client seem like bloatware. While it doesn't seem to upload for some reason, always hovering in the 0.1 Kb/s range, my download speeds are much better than the official one. It immediately connects to a bunch of peers for torrents where the official client fails to show any full seeds. While bandwidth fluctuates wildly, likely because of the upload problem, it's overall much faster.

For the next version, I'd like to see a progress bar that can scale, as the current one is just too tiny. Also, it be possible to use the native GUI for it as well, I wonder? I'm a ShapeShifter junkie, so this would make me very happy.
