I am not suggesting David is out to con anyone, (I bought Newsfire), but having played with it yesterday it seems to just be Transmission with a search front end.

Maybe Wanatabe will continue work on it? I like Xtorrent, but back to BitRocket for me until the announce issue is resolved :/ Shame that Xtorrent uses libtransmission instead of libtorrent. libtransmission has significant documented bugs that no one seems to do anything about.

More features then Transmission and less resource intensive then Azureus. While it may not be free, I've payed for another clients before, particularly Newsleecher and Unison. If this does turn out to be a good client, I wouldn't mind forking over some dough for it.

I like Azureus+plugins because I can give it torrent feeds and it downloads when the feed is updated and it finds something according to the filter I setup. Haha, we all know you’re biased Glenn.
