Opera, the popular multi-platform browser has supported BitTorrent for some time now. After more than a year of development, the release of v9.50 Alpha sees the introduction of a uTorrent compatible Peer Exchange feature which will hopefully help to speed up transfers and reduce tracker load.

I like opera a lot. But as a torrent system I've found it lacking compared to dedicated applications such as Auzuras or uTorrent.

Same opionion here, compared to µtorrent, it's nothing. It's not lightweigth, starting big downloads takes too long and speeds are below par and there's not DHT support to speed things up.

Why Don't You Like Opera? - (14)

Another browser topic... I am so original. Anyway, this is mainly directed to the firefox folks.
Why do you think Opera is "weird"? As far as I can see, Opera has several times FF's features
and is several times smaller. And please don't bring up how it's not open source blah blah
blah. That reason's too overused, and I think it's too little a reason to stop using this
wonderful browser. Moved to Software > Internet & Network Clients ...
