I always see this comment.

The auto-add function is already there.

uTorrent for Windows has all those things. Perhaps the Mac version is just behind a few features, given that it is new and all.

I have lost ENTIRE torrents using Transmission, I simply cannot trust it.

To be honest, the Mac beta version is a memory hugger like Transmission. Maybe Macs are just not good at sharing files. Either way, I would still not swap my Mac for five PCs.

i get the points the author of the article states, but i personally have a different opinion after using both transmission on my mac and utorrent on my windows machine for several months.
for me the most important information are download speeds, and not just the speeds right now but over time, the graphical display of utorrent gives me much more relational information than the text information of transmission. i want more of this! for example colorcoded graphs for each downloading torrent, and how they add up and how many seeds/peers are there at a specific point presented graphically, so i can guess if this torrent is getting faster because more seeds are coming or if its going slower, also speed guessing would be nice. the ul/dl badge feature of transmission is nice but in my opinion i do no want to know this stuff when i am working, i just get distracted.

so the biggest differences between the 2 tools are:
-transmission emphasizes the progressbar – how much of the file is downloaded
-utorrent emphasizes the actual and relative speed of the download (but could do it better)

in my opinion, relative speed is more relevant because u seldomly get constant speed with torrents. and the derivation of it does make it simpler to look at, but leads to the impression of a slow download. (think: loading bar as a metaphor – who wants to look at that)

the best would be to visualize each bit of flowing data so you would see a really fast stream of bits
