Well, if we look around online piracy has really faced some major setbacks previous year. We have seen a majority of Torrent sites going down. Well, web pirates now have something to look forward because the man who created BitTorrent has just announced something awesome!
BitTorrent creator, Bram Cohen has just announced that uTorrent client will some make a shift to internet browsers. Right now uTorrent is the world’s most popular torrent client which have more than 150 million users spread across the world.
While talking to TorrentFreak, Bram Cohen, said that the next iteration of uTorrent will run inside your web browser. The upcoming major update will also enable some awesome feature like Streaming.
If we look around BitTorrent already have a browser project which is called Maelstrom. However, most of the features of Maelstrom are now being blended into new uTorrent release. The only difference is users won’t need to install any different web browser.
Bram Cohen said in a report “We’re very, very sensitive. We know people have been using uTorrent for a very long time and love it. So we’re very, very sensitive to that and gonna be sure to make sure that people feel that it’s an upgrade that’s happening. Not that we’ve just destroyed the experience,”
Bram Choen also said that there are many changes yet to made especially on user-friendliness. The main revenue stream of uTorrent will be in client advertising. So, what do you think about this?
