Comment Re:A browser with native BitTorrent (Score 1) 385

More bloat in a browser? Riiight. And Azureus is soooo lightweight!

If a browser can implement the BitTorrent download protocol in a manner which provides reasonably good performance, that is a *good* thing for users. The extra "bloat" cannot be compared to the bloat of running another program altogether on top of your browser.

(disclaimer: I use and prefer Azureus as my BitTorrent client of choice. But, like almost all Java programs, it is resource intensive.)
