Right now "torrent software" links to µTorrent web site, which is a closed source software. I would be best to recommend a free and open source one (like [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transmission_(BitTorrent_client) Transmission]) or point to the [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_BitTorrent_clients comparison of BitTorrent clients in Wikipedia]. Looking at the [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_BitTorrent_clients#Operating_system_support operating system support] I see that [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/QBittorrent qBittorrent] is the only one which can run on Windows, Mac OS X, Linux, BSD, iOS and Android. If you want to recommend only one client, it seems like the universal one. | Right now "torrent software" links to µTorrent web site, which is a closed source software.

:You are right. The point is that, even if a closed-souce software, utorrent is a really good bittorrent client. I use myself Transmission, but Transmission is buggy with web seeds, so we can not recommend it. I don't know qBittorrent, this is a problem. If If I had to change to an open-source software, I would propose [http://deluge-torrent.org/ deluge]. You can change for deluge if you want, I agree.
