While searching for an easy to use, yet powerful bittorrent client for Linux about a year ago, i found Deluge, which was pretty unstable and not quite ready for every day use back then.
Since then much has changed and it has become my favourite bittorrent client for Linux. Finally on July 15th the Deluge team released version 0.9.02 (1.0.0 RC2) of their software and I must say, i’m pretty impressed by what they did to this already good product. They totally renewed the GUI and made it very intuitive, it now looks very similar to uTorrent. Besides the fresh interface deluge still has all the features you need in order to properly download torrents, though most of the old plugins still have to be rewritten to be compatible with the new version, but this will only be a matter of time.
I recommend you to try this great client, if you are searching for a good piece of software to download your torrents. Since it’s mostly written in Python you can get packages for many different Linux distributions as well as for OS X and Windows on their download page.
