(3) people in countries with metered bandwidth, esp.In this tutorial, we review and compare the top free Torrent Clients to help you select the best Torrent downloader as per your requirement:
Their up bandwidth being used in this way (2) people on corporate networks who's sysadmins don't appreciate (1) people on asymmetric links which degrade when their up
This also has implications for people in varying situations, e.g. It's gone from "I'm downloading this file" to "I'm downloading this file and using my up bandwidth to share what I've got with others (including after I finished downloading)". (3) bittorrent fundamentally changes the proposition for the user and that needs to be well explained. This can lead to a bad user experience (much worse than a 'slow' download of an ISO, IMO). (2) bittorrent, on the client side, still fails ungracefully in a lot of situations (NAT, networks with egress restrictions, asymmetric links). Every server we've looked at is completely unreliable (we run our current one in a while loop it crashes so often!) and doesn't scale well (sic). (1) The bittorrent server story is terrible. There's (from my POV, IMO) several reasons why bittorrent should certainly not be the default and probably low key. Plus it gives a unique url that others can use when telling people about BT. But I think you'll be happy that the new download page makes it easier to find for those who want BT. That said, the new download page that will launch tomorrow lists "other download options" which includes a link directly to a section on the other options page which explains bt and has links directly to the torrents.Įven if #1 is solved #2 requires user education and I don't think the download page is the place to do that. Ubuntu strives to be accessible to the masses and everyone understands, "your download will begin shortly."
2 BT is harder to use than a big green button that says "download" because users have to install software which can vary greatly from computer to computer.
