If you frequently download legal torrents, you need a simple but capable app. We used to consider Deluge the absolute king, but with every update, Transmission edges closer to the top spot.
The latest version is exactly what you want in a torrent client—it features a clean, unobtrusive design that is completely ad-free. It works so well that it comes bundled by default in Ubuntu Linux.
Once you launch the app, you can start downloading immediately. Transmission recommends limiting active downloads to five at a time, though you can adjust this in the settings. You can sort your list by various metrics, check peer counts, monitor speeds, and easily cap your download or upload limits with a quick right-click.
Transmission is completely free and a joy to use. If you need a reliable client, grab the newest version at transmissionbt.com.
