| Some of the programs or games can be freely distributed on the net (e.g. [[:en:games:nexuiz|Nexuiz]] or [[en:mods:balanced_annihilation|Balanced Annihilation]]). Since my upload used to be too limited, especially in the past below 100 kb/sec, I started to make it possible to distribute the whole thing via torrent, because all peers can help with the upload and their upload speeds up the process.

| More or less the opposite of Azureus/Vuze is µTorrent. It is very small, has a quite good set of functions and is above all quite resource-friendly. You can find it [[http://www.utorrent.com/intl/de/downloads/linux|here]]. Unfortunately the client seems to be available for Windows only.
