message: I'm stuck out in the country where highspeed internet connections are not available. Yes, I use a  56k modem. Aaargh! Anyways, µTorrent has a scheduler option that allows the user to set the upload and download speeds for every hour of every day of the week. This handy option allows me to have µTorrent running in the background while I use the internet. I use 2.0 kB/s download and 1.0 kB/s upload and it does not cause any noticable lagg. When I'm not using the internet I put µTorrent on full throttle (which because of my connection, is slower than a snail stuck in cold molassis). Torrents stay available for download for days, weeks and even sometimes months allowing people with 56k connections to download large files.
:The talk page is really for discussion of the article, not the place for user testimonials.  I appreciate that you support the software, but that's really not what this space is for. Canonblack 14:49, 3 June 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  µTorrent is great ! 

message: The list of features is ripped right from the µT homepage.  Needs to be rewritten, I've done enough work on the page for now :) splintax (talk) 08:55, 23 November 2005 (UTC)
thread_title:  List on the page 

message: Is the forums link really necessary? The program's forum is clearly linked to on utorrent.com which is also included in the External Links section. dc 20:57, 6 February 2006 (UTC)

message: Someone changed all the µs(U+00B5) to μs(U+03BC). I reverted because the official site uses U+00B5. WP 09:25, 21 February 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: µ (00B5) is the "Micro" sign. μ (03BC) is the lowercase latin letter mu. So it isn't "mutorrent" it is "microtorrent". -- 82.152.177.94 22:06, 30 June 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  µ not μ 

message: Most english users are going to be searching for uTorrent, not μTorrent, so I moved the page.  In addition to causing slightly less server strain, it reduce confusion for people arriving at ΜTorrent, since most English speakers aren't familiar with the greek alphabet. -- Frantik 05:57, 13 May 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  Moved to UTorrent 

message: Hey, I can agree with making the title of the page UTorrent (since µTorrent isn't allowed and UTorrent > MTorrent), but it looks kinda stupid saying the correct title is uTorrent when what we're really working around is µTorrent.  I'm reluctant to simply substitute u for µ in the lowercase template because capital µ isn't a U, so what do you guys think?--Cyberdude93 10:50, 13 May 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: the correct title of the article is uTorrent.  The correct title of the program is μTorrent. :) --Frantik 21:46, 16 May 2006 (UTC)

text: The page should definately never be called ΜTorrent because it isn't called μTorrent, it's µTorrent. That means it is "microTorrent" not "muTorrent". There is no capital micro sign, and the micro sign itself can't be used so it has to be uTorrent due to technical limitations. -- 82.152.177.94 22:10, 30 June 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Anyway I still believe that the page should be under UTorrent on wikipedia as it is the name of the offical website. The only time I have ever heard this program called MTorrent or MuTorrent, is on the Wikipedia pages and personally I didn't know if I was in the correct article. --I am Tickopa 91.84.42.196 19:12, 3 October 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: I agree that the article should be renamed to UTorrent, simply because it's the substitute name / transcription in use. It's the name of the original program file, the Windows process, and of the original website. MTorrent is never mentioned and is therefore confusing as the name of this article. I've added a rename/move request to WP:Requested_moves. Subversive element 12:45, 6 October 2006 (UTC)

thread_title:  Correct title is uTorrent? 

message: Alright, that little part in Development under History was changed, and I guess I have forgotten how small the program was ("more than doubled" means "less than half of ver. 1.6"). So could somebody say what size it actually was at its first public release so it doesn't look like a false or exaggerated claim?XYZABC 19:48, 4 July 2006 (UTC)

* One may wonder why this article should be moved.  Even though I support this move, it seems a little silly to move it to a title that's just as "wrong" as the current one.  Peter O. (Talk) 21:45, 9 October 2006 (UTC)

message: utorrent just got bought, should probably be in the page but I don't know here to put it. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 67.120.85.115 (talk) 03:24, 8 December 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  got bought by bittorent, page should reflect that 

message: By adding  at the top of the article µTorrent can be displayed correctly. I suggest we do this and move things back to µTorrent. --Scandum 13:19, 12 December 2006 (UTC)
