La siguiente es una comparación general de los clientes BitTorrent , que son programas de computadora diseñados para compartir archivos de igual a igual utilizando el protocolo BitTorrent . [1]
El protocolo BitTorrent coordina la transferencia de archivos segmentados entre pares conectados en un enjambre . Un cliente BitTorrent permite a un usuario intercambiar datos como un par en uno o más enjambres. Dado que BitTorrent es un protocolo de comunicaciones de igual a igual que no necesita un servidor , la definición de BitTorrent de cliente difiere del significado convencional expresado en el modelo cliente-servidor . [1]
Bram Cohen , autor del protocolo BitTorrent, creó el primer cliente BitTorrent, al que también llamó BitTorrent , y lo publicó en julio de 2001. [2]
Muchos programas BitTorrent son software de código abierto ; otros son freeware , adware o shareware . Algunos administradores de descargas , como FlashGet y GetRight , están preparados para BitTorrent. Opera 12 , un navegador web , también puede transferir archivos a través de BitTorrent.
En 2013, Thunder Networking Technologies reveló públicamente que algunos de sus empleados distribuyeron subrepticiamente un caballo de Troya con ciertas versiones de Xunlei , el administrador de descargas listo para BitTorrent de la compañía. [3] [4] Xunlei se incluye en las tablas de comparación.

- ^ a b c d x86-32 and x86-64 builds available
- ^ Qdbus interface
- ^ For a torrent added from a Magnet link, obtain the list of files (and other metadata) before prompting the user for a download location.
- ^ Automatically configure port forwarding (requires Router with UPnP support)
- ^ Many clients claim to support this, but just UPnP calls for opening a TCP port is not effective and disabled by factory default in most new hardware. "UDP NAT Traversal" is the proper working solution, supported by just a few.
- ^ DHT permits use of trackerless torrents (with supporting clients) to resume normal torrents when their tracker is down. However, some trackers that register their users for keeping tabs on fair usage (such as a ratio of bytes downloaded to uploaded) may not reliably measure and update usage for users employing DHT.
- ^ Tracker included with Linux binaries and with source, but not with Windows binary.
- ^ a b Exchanging with BT 6 and μTorrent clients (and now MooPolice).
- ^ This is done manually. Right click an item and select "Force Re-Check". This will trigger preload. Note, if deluge is restarted before preload finishes, it will continue downloading torrent content.
- ^ μTorrent's DHT implementation Archived 18 March 2009 at the Wayback Machine is the same as Mainline and BitComet's, but unfortunately this is incompatible with Azureus's implementation.
- ^ Since Shareaza v2.6.0.0, Shareaza includes Mainline DHT support. Also, Shareaza can use the Gnutella2 network to find other Gnutella2 clients sharing the same torrent. This also includes clients who do not actively seed the torrent in question anymore, as long as file hashes (such as sha1 for example) are known.
- ^ Since Shareaza v2.5.5.1 r9064.
- ^ Exchanges with μTorrent and Azureus peers.
- ^ Since version 2.5.0.2. It's UDP based, an experimental feature and only supported by other Azureus clients.
- ^ Has its own DHT, a mainline-DHT compatible implementation is available as plugin.
- ^ Reduces disk usage, file fragmentation (in case it is not preallocated) and latencies via larger written blocks and cached data for hash checking finished pieces.
- ^ Called "preview mode"
- ^ a b c d Does not support HTTP redirection (status codes: 301, 302, 303, 307).
- ^ a b c d e Does not support HTTPS.
- ^ Only available in Pro and web version
- ^ Only available in Pro and web version.From version 3.0 this feature is called "Streaming mode". The number of pieces to download sequentially is configurable
- ^ Opera has a feed aggregator that displays feeds like emails.
- ^ Since Shareaza v2.4.0.2 r7924.
- ^ Since Shareaza v2.5.3.1.
- ^ Shareaza also uses G2 to transmit download metadata, such as BitTorrent trackers to other G2 clients.
- ^ Support only base path ("url-list" path) redirection (message: "HTTP redirect does not match file path").
- ^ Adds HTTP referer header in request on HTTP redirection (useful behavior).
- ^ Provides a Java-based and a simple HTML/JS based WebUI.
