Vuze is a free software application that makes downloading and sharing digital media over the Internet simple. Utilizing BitTorrent technology for peer-to-peer file transfer between users, this program works on Mac OSX, Windows and Linux operating systems and has been downloaded more than 140 million times – providing access to both copyrighted and non-copyrighted content.
Vuze was developed as open source software and is based on Azureus BitTorrent client, also released as an open source project in 2003. Most torrents found within Vuze can also be accessed without incurring legal issues, while certain titles may contain copyrighted material and should be used with care.
Vuze can offer its services free-of-charge because it earns money by placing advertisements on users’ screens while downloading and watching media content. Users who do not wish to see these advertisements can pay a subscription fee to remove them altogether.
Vuze, as a P2P file sharing tool, allows its users to network with those who share similar interests and download high-resolution video, music, games and other media files. It features an easy user interface for searching files and adding them directly into their downloading queue with one click; additionally, the program automatically converts downloaded media into formats compatible with computer or television playback.
Vuze supports various plugins that extend its functionality. For instance, Vuze can scan RSS feeds and automatically download updates. Furthermore, it includes an HD video player for playing files directly within its torrenting program.
The program can be personalized using various settings, such as choosing how many peers should be used when searching for new files. Furthermore, there are options to limit bandwidth usage, adjust seeding rules and create custom ports – it even supports auto moving of completed files between directories!
