The new release features bug fixes for all the known issues with the previous version as well as some nice new features. + +For Mac users the new version, Transmission .70 requires OS X 10.4 or greater, though previous versions of Transmission are still available for those not using the latest version of OS X. + +I've never had any problems with the previous version of Transmission so I can't comment on the bug fixes, but some of the additional features are quite nice. + +I especially like the ability to limit bandwidth by torrent and, while I don't know what I'd use it for, there's also the ability to schedule bandwidth limits -- could be handy for people whose bandwidth is being throttled by Comcast. + +There's also a new minimized list view which shows just the progress bar for those that have dozens of torrent files running at once. + +The torrent inspector window features a number of new stats and info including a list of connected IPs and percentage stats by peer. + +The new icon is nice and when switching apps with Cmd+Tab Transmission will show your upload and download speeds in the icon (see screenshot below). + +While the majority of the new features, particularly the interface changes and additions are limited to OS X version, Transmission can also be compiled on Linux, heck there's even a version for BeOS. + +For a complete list of changes and to download the new version head over to the [Transmission site][1]. + +[1]: http://transmission.m0k.org/ "Transmission"
