It's all about any and every possible way for the $$$ to roll in! The top brass at Bittorrent Inc. knows very well that the evolution of p2p is changing with each day that passes and this way of downloading and sharing is not going to last forever....So the get all you can mentality plays a big factor! If you notice lately there have been more offer settings in the hidden advanced settings, facebook, twitter and now a new buundle icons in the status bar that you cannot disable....Click, click, click= $$$. Have you ever had a problem with connecting to these icons or anything to do with ads, offers, etc......Didn't think so! Have you ever have problems with the normal function of utorrent that has nothing to do with ads, offers, buundles...Yes we have! I'm expecting an Alpha version to rear it's head soon and we will be on that circle of fix and break routine all over again!
