    I would like to discuss about the transmission. Transmission is a client P2P light, free and open source network for BitTorrent. It is available under the MIT license, with some parts GPL, and is multiplatform. It supports the following operating systems : Mac OS X interface ( Cocoa , native), Linux interface (GTK +), Linux interface (Qt), NetBSD, FreeBSD and OpenBSD interface (GTK +) and BeOS (native interface). Transmission was designed to be easy and fast. It uses a much smaller amount of resources than other BitTorrent clients (such as Vuze). This excellent program seeks to provide useful features and easy to learn and avoid overwhelming the user with a stack of features that end up confused rather than help. It is for this reason has less functionality than the rest of the customers "complete".
