  uTorrent shows banner ads and recently shipped with bitcoin mining malware. It's also a lot more work--and requires a second program, like VLC--to do streaming. I'm optimistic about WebTorrent Desktop adoption. You're right that we need lots more hybrid client adoption to bridge the BitTorrent and WebTorrent networks and really make it work in the browser. I hope WebTorrent Desktop can be that client. Finally, libtorrent is open source. Here's the discussion about adding WebTorrent support: https://github.com/arvidn/libtorrent/issues/223 https://github.com/arvidn/libtorrent/issues/223

    It dosen't matter that they show banners. They are number 1 anyway. Telemetry didn't change windows adoption and ads didn't change utorrent adoption. I know about this issue from 14 october :) I am not so optimistic, this client has 15-30 times more ram usage and couple of times more CPU usage. You can just install qBittorrent set sequential downloading and watch the movie..

      Yes it matters. Ads if downloaded from Internet at start time will definitely introduce anonimity/privacy issues and cut user base by large. utorrent is #1 only because older versions (no adds/malware) are easily accessible.
