Opera/Bit Torrent

Interesting to see this , I'm sure we'll start to see other browsers offering this in the near future.

nice idea.. good for downloading small files.. but azureus still rlz

This would become useful once all the major sites start moving their downloads to .torrent format until it finally becomes the standars. I would go bananas if I needed to open Opera everytime I wanted to resume a torrent.

That's awesome right there. I think that firefox should follow suit because it would be really good to have it ln there as well. Is there any word if it's also going to be in a linux release as well as windows?

If you want to try it out there is a deb on their ftp:

ftp://ftp.opera.com/pub/opera/linux/...sarge_i386.deb

I was a big opera fan back when I used windows, but it looks so ugly next to native gtk+ apps.

bittorent works fine, nicely integrated in opera!

I would love a bittorent integration extension for Firefox. Perhaps something that will integrate with the download manager, which is quite nice with the download manager tweak extention. I've tried using Azureus, I find it a bit too much for my tastes. I prefer a much more simple bittorrent client myself.

There is some project going on...:

That moztorrent plugin looks pretty sweet. I'm glad to see that it's in alpha and at least starting it's journey to release. Now just to wait for public beta. I'm having a slight issue with the Opera .deb but I'll get the hang of it eventually. lol. Just takes some experimenting like anything with linux.

I don't like azureus neither. First it's based on java and second it's huge, needs a lot of memory and is kinda slow.

moztorrent hasn't any files available!

there is a new one called gnome-torrent, looks really nice!
