What I used to get from torrents, I now get from the novel new idea called usenet. They have been there all along, I just didn't know the right newsgroup. Don't know what you mean by rise, but if you mean become the most used. Maybe. I have used several including Vuze, Transmission, KTorrent, qBittorrent, and uTorrent for Linux. All do what I need a torrent client to do, download, seed the torrent, and be secure. That is all they need to do. As far as ads go I would just ignore them.
