    "Pleased w/beginner friendly free downloads for IMAC."

    July 13, 2010  |   By TheBiggerA1

    Version: Vuze BitTorrent Client 4.4.0.6

    Pros

    This is a great place for nostalgia buffs to stay caught up with movies and shows of the past. It also provides for various media, i.e. IPod, DVD output in one place.

    Cons

    Free software does not give a company a license to lie. The ability to download to Tivo, (main attraction), is a falsehood. Even after a letter to Vuze (no response), I find it hard to stomach false advertisement.

    Summary

    The price is right, and I purchased the Plus package. I probably will keep looking for a honest company that actually delivers what they say with the same user friendly application. I will probably not renew Vuze Plus unless that TiVo thing is corrected. Being a beginner, I was able to burn DVD's and download to IPod. The visual quality seems to be superb and NO COMMERCIALS.

    "used to be good"

    June 29, 2010  |   By ivanji07

    Version: Vuze BitTorrent Client 4.4.0.6

    Pros

    Before you were able to browse through cool channels and download music videos on HD - everything nicely organized. The only network I know where it was possible to watch and find the best Music Videos and Interesting videos most in HD

    Cons

    In their latest version almost everything is wrong - whatever used to make this bittorrent client unique was removed.

    Summary

    It's nothing special and doesnt justify downloading and opening such a memory hog software when we have better alternatives. Bring back the old Vuze!

    Version: Vuze BitTorrent Client 4.4.0.4

    Pros

    I love the H.D. and the downloads are really fast

    Cons

    I cant think of anything

    Summary

    I find the Vuze client really good, and there is so much more to it than meets the eye. I am still learning how to use it to get the best from it, I find the forum very helpful.

    "1 stop shop for downloading and streaming media"

    May 14, 2010  |   By dajokerwild

    Version: Vuze BitTorrent Client 4.4.0.4

    Pros

    -its the only media streamer i know of that can be used on a mac for free.
    -almost anything you need to search for pops up in the search bar so no real need to surf sites.
    -Its FREE

    Cons

    -The search option could pull from more than the sites that it does pull from.
    -Cant's stream your entire media collection by default you have to hand pick every song track and movie u share with your other media devices but not to big a deal

    Summary

    definitely worth getting especially if your a bit-torrent user. Sure you have to hand pick everything that is streamed but its really not a big a deal plus its free. I use it frequently to stream to 360 or PS3.

    "vuze currently not functioning with Macs"

    March 21, 2010  |   By yurio

    Version: Vuze BitTorrent Client 4.3.1.4

    Summary

    This review was originally posted on VersionTracker.com.
    www.vuze.com has a problem to load for Mac browsers for over a week. reports say regardless of Safari, Firefox or others and running Leopard or Snow. as result, Vuze's search, help and other features that use connection to the vuze site no longer work (time-out error). i hope they can fix it rather soon. the symptom seems across Macs and PC's doing fine (according to forum reposts.)

    running Mac OS 10.5.8

    "Porno Adware and more"

    February 27, 2010  |   By hkim

    Version: Vuze BitTorrent Client 4.3.1.4

    Summary

    This review was originally posted on VersionTracker.com.
    The current build of Vuze now includes ads for porno, degrees, etc. during any search. After spending too much time dealing with spam that advertises the same crap, now these guys start up with the same thing! That alone has caused me to trash it from my machine.
