What's the difference between Utorrent and bit torrent?

Question

which is better and why?

Answer 1

BitTorrent bought uTorrent some time ago and shortly thereafter released a BitTorrent version that was basically uTorrent.

Except the BitTorrent contains DNA, which does nothing for the average user and is always running, even when the client is closed.

This article on best free bittorrent clients discusses this and more:

Answer 2

They are the same.

bit torrent and Utorrent were competly different softwares.  Utorrent was a less of a memory hog. It quietly works in the background. While bittorrent used more memory and affected the connection speed. The bittorrent company like the utorrent software and they decided to combine.  Bittorrent then changed their software to be just like utorrent.

So basically they are the same.

I would still recommend utorrent.

Answer 3

As others have explained the difference all I'll do is recommend µtorrent http://utorrent.com

It is by far the best client out there and the easiest to optimise too.

Happy torrenting....

Don't be afraid to experiment with the settings because not all computers or connections are the same and many people find certain settings work better for them than others.

Answer 4

i have tried both and find utorrent is quicker and works with more torrents as bit torrent has been banned from some sites,

Answer 5

The difference between the 2 progs arent much, except Bit Torrent has been banned by alot of sites and torrent providers. Utorrent and Azureus are the main torrent clients across the web. Several other clients are trying to make their way up to the top with AZ & Utorrent.

As for which is better? I'd go with Utorrent. Most sites that have torrents, recognize utorrent better. Not too many issues with utorrent.

Answer 6

utorrent is the best
