Opera Will Have Bittorrent

The next version of Opera will have a built-in bittorrent client.

Opera Software today launched a technical preview (TP) of the Opera browser for Windows, Linux and Mac that includes support for BitTorrent. Integrating this popular file-downloading technology in the Opera browser offers the end user a faster download process by utilizing full bandwidth and reducing the chance of in-transfer delay when multiple users download the same file.

Awesome or whut?

 

sounds pretty cool. not really that useful though :\

 

that's nice opera is a norwegian browser..
it owns i use it

 

Not really that useful? Think of the possibilities man, currently when I run BitTorrent it hogs some resources, but it seriouslu decreases Internet speed. Opera plans to devise a way to stop internet speed decreasing, without having DL speed decreasing =|

 

This belongs in the computer section, now with that out of the way...

WHOA! Thats got be one of the sweetest features a browser has offered! Firefox owns, but I cant see them doing anything like that....

does opera have tabbed browsing?

 

Yes, Opera has tabbed browsing

 

This might make me decide to go to opera idk i like my firefox lol maybe mozila will try to counter act against this with something even better

 

I dont have bitorrent cuz it costs money so I staying with good old limeware

BitTorrent is free =|

Well the type I use is... :s

 

opera pwns, im waiting for this to come out

 

Some people are really misinformed.
Bittorrent is free
Opera has a more advanced tabbed browsing system than firefox
Bittorent is a faster way to download than normally so it is very usefull
And opera also has a built in irc client which is pretty sweet.

Uhhhh every BT client that I know of (ones that are worth using) are free! And BT is way different then Limewire!

I think Im might download opera just to get an idea of what its like!

 

That sounds pretty awesome. But I'm still gonna use Bitlord.

 

that sounds awesome, but i will still use both opera and firefox

 

i use opera and FF because they are both faster than IE. also, if you have any open tabs open in opera and you close it, it'll open those tabs when you open Opera the next time!
