Just got my new 24" iMac and want to get started on downloading some shows and need a torrent app. I was using azureus on my powerbook before it died :( any recommendations?

    You ass! I want the new imac so bad....anyway download Transmission. Its extremely simple and very small and convenient. It even tells you your download rate under its icon on the dock.


    btw: dont download Vuze, it SUCKS.

    transmission is solid.

    some good sites to check out:
    piratebay
    isohunt
    demonoid

    also---the hype machine. i know it's not a torrent site (music blog listings), but i've found some really great stuff on there. sometimes, you can find a whole show all zipped up. but most of the time, it's song-by-song.
    I LOVE MUSIC.

    Transmission is great, a lot of updates too. Which kind of get annoying. Fair warning tho, dont update in the middle of downloading a torrent or you will lose the work....

    Tomato isnt bad either

    Transmission.
  • The Mac version of uTorrent isn't bad, but not quite as lightweight as Transmission.
