µTorrent is a popular client of P2P peer-to-peer networks (BitTorrent protocol), which due to its functionality and small size is deservedly a leader among programs in this category.
The advantages include multi-threaded file downloads, bandwidth allocation, setting download / upload limits, remote control via the web interface, and among the innovations, useful features such as video streaming (preview of downloaded material) and the presence of a rating and commenting system for torrents have appeared .
In addition, uTorrent users have the opportunity to share content with friends. To use this function, you just need to drag the selected files into the corresponding area of the main program window ("Drop files to send"), after which a torrent is automatically generated, a link to which you can give out to everyone.
It is also worth noting the built-in BitTorrent Speed technology. This protocol allows you to speed up data loading through the use of so-called tokens: according to the idea of developers, to earn more tokens, siders will stay longer in the network, and those who want to speed up the download can pay for it with the same tokens.
