What is BitTornado?

BitTornado is a free BitTorrent client for transfer of computer files over networks, including the Internet. It is developed by John Hoffman, who also created its predecessor, Shad0w's Experimental Client. Based on the original BitTorrent client, the interface is largely the same, with added features such as prioritised downloading when downloading batches (several files).

About  (from John Hoffman)

BitTornado is a easy to use BitTorrent client which uses the full BitTorrent protocol implementation and contains many other powerful features.
