It’s completely free but not open source. µTorrent also makes it easy to find and download the official BitTorrent Bundles, which are packed with music, movies, and other great free, freely-licensed entertainment to enjoy. It’ll even throttle itself back as soon as you start to use bandwidth heavy applications on your computer. Currently, you can configure the time interval, the data cap and whether it should stop based on only download, upload, or both combined.It has all of the features you would expect from a good BitTorrent client, including the ability to resume stopped downloads, download things in sequential order, support for encrypted files, support for remote control via mobile apps, download scheduling, port forwarding, and more. Now you can track your usage in MB (with a handy graph to visualize it) and even configure µTorrent to stop torrenting once the limits are exceeded. The transfer cap settings were added in response to various users who have ISP-mandated caps on how much data they can download/upload in a month. It's important for us to support this because trackers have limited resources, so this should allow them to support many more users with their current hardware and not crash under the load.

UDP trackers are a different protocol for tracker communication that uses significantly less processing power on the tracker end. It is even possible to connect two firewalled peers through uTP's NAT traversal feature.

This allows µTorrent to punch holes through routers and firewalls to increase connectivity and improve speeds. In addition, uTP in this version has added its own form of STUN, a method of getting incoming connections without direct connectivity to the Internet. This does not require any additional setup. This will allow you or other users on the network to download their torrents but still allow others on the network to function with little difference. UTP is an alternative communication method for BitTorrent traffic that allows the client to automatically regulate its bandwidth usage to avoid adversely impacting your internet connection. With BitTorrent, you can download files faster and contribute by sharing files and bandwidth. It was designed to use as little cpu, memory and space as possible while offering all the functionality expected from advanced clients. ΜTorrent is an efficient and feature rich BitTorrent client for Windows sporting a very small footprint.
