| “Share and download files from BitTorrent and chat with your friends”
From
slow beginnings, BitComet has risen to become one of the most popular
torrent client downloads on Softonic. For users accustomed to the often
sparse interfaces of torrent apps, BitComet surprises with its flashy
icons and multitude of options that give you more control over your
downloads. For those that want a no-fuss client, the extra features may
simply get in the way.
Once a torrent is selected for download
with BitComet, a dialog pops up allowing you to determine the location
to save to and select exactly which files in the torrent you want. Once
downloading, the regular stop, pause, cancel, update etc options are all
available on BitComet plus a handy “remove torrent & all files”
option which removes all trace of an unwanted torrent from your PC. Many
BitComet users report the download rates are good although note no
particular difference with other client speeds. The best feature however
is a ‘preview media’ option, which forces the torrent to download
sequentially instead of randomly thus allowing you to preview any
multimedia downloads. It’s a great way to avoid broken links, but, on
the downside, it will slow down your download considerably.
Another
interesting feature on BitComet is the ‘intelligent disk cache’ which
really comes into its own on high speed connections. If you are lucky
enough to get download transfer rates of 500 kb/s or higher, activating
it allows BitComet to cache the data to access the disk less frequently.
The result of this is that it doesn’t slow down your PC as receiving
large amounts of data can sometimes do.
Forum reports from
foreign BitComet users suggest that the program has not been translated
properly from English, yet this doesn’t affect the capacities of
BitComet. The other downside is that the uninstall procedure is not
particularly clean. The application directory remains as does the
registry entry although you can remove the former manually and the
latter with any good registry cleaner.
There are simpler clients
out there, such as uTorrent uTorrent and Azureus that offer the same
download rates but with less fuss. If you have a particularly fast
connection, can’t wait for your files to download before watching them
and enjoy a torrent client with lots of whistles and bells, BitComet
might be for you.
