TorrentFreak user survey Removal[edit]

Does anyone else feel that this has no place here? The results our obviously skewed and incorrect due to Vuse posting it on their site. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Zark424 (talk • contribs) 19:57, 15 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Rerated article class[edit]

I rerated this article as a stub. There is not a single reference listed. A B-class article is full of sources and this has none. After updating the article it can be reconsidered for a higher class. § Music Sorter § (talk) 04:35, 18 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Steam survay[edit]

Steam survayed users installed software and came up witht these stats:

µTorrent 29.41%,BitTorrent 5.28%,Vuze(Azureus) 4.37%,BitComet 2.44%

Does anyone think they are relevant? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.32.59.247 (talk) 22:42, 31 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Nominate for merge[edit]

This article is hopelessly outdated, and hasn't seen any real activity in several years. I propose that it be merged with Comparison of BitTorrent clients, and have marked both pages to that effect. 65.158.81.126 (talk) —Preceding undated comment added 07:03, 18 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Are there reliable sources for this kind of information?[edit]

I notice that several of the more popular bittorrent clients, according to this TorrentFreak list, don't have Wikipedia pages, so they aren't considered notable by Wikipedia. That seems to indicate a lack of reliable objective information about which clients are actually prevalent. Either that, or Wikipedia decisions on notability are not being made based on which clients are actually used. Normanmargolus (talk) 17:57, 12 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
