        <p>
Being in the <a href="http://pwop.com/">podcasting business</a> means taking BitTorrent
seriously.
</p>
        <p>
To make our podcasts more available, <a href="http://www.intellectualhedonism.com/">Carl</a> and
I, along with a bunch of other folks, seed for <a href="http://www.dotnetrocks.com/">.NET
Rocks</a>, <a href="http://mondays.pwop.com/">Mondays</a>, <a href="http://www.hanselminutes.com/">Hanselminutes</a> and <a href="http://www.dnrtv.com/">dnrTV</a>.
</p>
        <p>
All along I've been using <a href="http://azureus.sourceforge.net/">Azureus</a>, which
has the plug-ins for RSS so that the pwop shows are automagically downloaded.
</p>
        <p>
Azureus is one of the original BitTorrent clients, written in Java, and is a classic
example of what happens when really smart people write software. It has every feature
imaginable, barely documented and generally unintelligible. Its so bad that Azureus
has its own <a href="http://azureus.aelitis.com/wiki/index.php/Main_Page">wiki</a> so
that people can help each other try to understand it.
</p>
        <p>
Then along comes <a href="http://www.utorrent.com/">uTorrent</a>. Its a regular Windows
app, and while it doesn't have as many features as Azureus, it has all the ones that
matter. And it makes sense, and it <em>works</em>.
</p>
        <p>
So, I've switched. And I'm not alone.
