I have my µTorrent setup so after the torrent file downloads it automatically opens µTorrent up and begins downloading. Limewire is garbage.

i have used both utorrent and transmission on my two macs. i prefer transmission’s interface but was instructed by my nerdy mac friend that utorrent was better.
i doubt that i’ll ever notice the true difference in either program, i use them to dl lame music and movies.

I’ve been using Xtorrent for years, but it’s not free. but for your needs, it’s more about your torrent site and less about the client.

I wasn’t sure about µTorrent for Mac. It probably the most widely used for windows.

not sure what promo only cd’s are but if they are music related try using SoulSeek.

If you can’t find it on there it probably doesn’t exist.
