That's never been proven.

They are affiliated with the MPAA, though- that's a good reason not to use them.

I still use 1.6.1 but am looking for a better alternative. Unless you're into bloatware like Azureus, there's nothing to replace utorrent.

Depends.. on which AZ. 2.5.0.4 is ok. V3 Zudeo is just ridiculous.

Stick with uTorrent. Most private trackers won't allow you to use any other version of uTorrent but 1.6.1 and 1.7.2.

Play it safe and use 1.6.1. IMO Azereus is a resource hog.
