BitTyrant is a new, protocol compatible BitTorrent client that is optimized
for fast download performance. BitTyrant is:

* Fast: During evaluation testing on more than 100 real BitTorrent swarms,
  BitTyrant provided an average 70% download performance increase when
  compared to the existing Azureus 2.5 implementation, with some downloads
  finishing more than three times as quickly.

* Fair: BitTorrent was designed with incentives in mind: if a user is
  downloading at 30 KBps, they should upload at 30 KBps. However, due to the
  unique workload properties of many real-world swarms, this is not always
  enforced. BitTyrant is designed to make efficient use of your scarce upload
  bandwidth, rewarding those users whose upload allocations are fair and only
  allocating excess capacity to other users.

* Familiar: BitTyrant is based on modifications to Azureus 2.5, currently the
  most popular BitTorrent client. All of our changes are under the hood.
  You'll find the GUI identical to Azureus, with optional additions to display
  statistics relevant to BitTyrant's operation.

Torrent Swapper is an open sourced sociable peer to peer file-sharing client
based on the Bittorrent protocol that is ideal for high-speed distribution of
large files that has a basic understanding of human friendships, of user
tastes in content, and of Internet connectivity between users. Torrent Swapper
supports simultaneous downloads, download queue, selected downloads in torrent
package, fast-resume, disk cache, speed limits, port mapping, proxy,
ip-filter, etc.

Features include:

* Amazon-like recommendations to get interesting files.
* Doubling the download speed by using the upload capacity of friends.
* Real-time P2P file sharing with P2P video streaming.
* Showing the locations of seeders / leechers of the same content with
  city-level accuracy on a world map.
* Multiple downloads in a single window.
* Queueing system with priority.
* Supporing pause, stop, resume, queue, remove operations.
* Supporting global setting such as upload and download limiting.
* Supporting local setting for each torrent as well.

Tribler is a social community that facilitates filesharing through a so called
peer-to-peer (p2p) network. A p2p network is structural different to a
server-computer structure, where every user downloads its files from one
central server. Within p2p the user/downloader becomes also an uploader to the
next user. In this way there is no central computer that provides every file
to all users.

FrostWire is an open-source peer-to-peer (P2P) file-sharing program. It uses

Vertex is an implementation of the Q2Q protocol (sort of like P2P, but one
better). There are a few moving parts in Vertex:

    * PTCP: a protocol which is nearly identical to TCP, but which runs over
      UDP. This lets Q2Q penetrate most NAT configurations.
    * JUICE ([JU]ice [I]s [C]oncurrent [E]vents): a very simple but immensely
      flexible protocol which forms the basis of the high-level aspects of Q2Q
    * vertex: a command line tool which exposes a few features useful in many
      situations (such as registration and authentication)

The Q2Q network has some decentralized features (there is no one server or
company which can control all Q2Q addresses) and features of centralization
(addresses beneath a particular domain are issued by a server for that domain;
once issued, some activities require the server to be contacted again, while
others do not). Vertex includes an identity server capable of hosting Q2Q
addresses.
