I dont know if anyone has tried version 4.3.x yet...but the interface is nice and the usability is awesome. Screw transmission :)

EDIT: AND ITS GOT PS3 SUPPORT! My box now shows up as a media server after installing Vuze. Im stoked...awesomeness.

Vuze is on version 4.4 buddy. And yes, it is awesome. It's the closest thing Linux has to uTorrent.

Personally, I don't like anything Java based, so Vuze is off the table. Nevertheless, i might try it just to see how is doing lately.

I have already used Transmission, Deluge, Ktorrent, Vuze, uTorrent and others. Deluge was my favorite for a long time, then I switched to Ktorrent when switched to KDE and was really happy with it, until I found qBittorrent, which is the fastest client I ever used. The interface is simple and efficient, has a good amount of features and is extremely fast.

Such a shame about the license.

The Azureus engine is released under the GNU General Public License, and is free software. However, parts of the recently added Vuze platform carry more restricted licensing terms, and it is no longer possible to install the Azureus engine using the latest installer without first accepting the Vuze license.
