You are bullying my client of choice here, Transmission.. :P

I don't think qbittorrent could choose what files to download from inside a torrent, and which to ignore, or which to prioritize?

I’m still on utorrent2, can get it oldversion.com or something like that. It’s too well made, never found a reason to switch.

I've tried most of these clients, but I keep going back to the old uTorrent 2.2.1 (the newer versions are indisputably awful). I find that it still has the best UX to date. On nix machines I use qB.

Edit: Warning: newer versions of uTorrent are malware. I recommend people pick a different client, as uTorrent actively tries to trick people into downloading the newer versions.

Meh. uTorrent version 2.1.8 works fine, and has no adware.
