This is Bram Cohen, the creator of the BitTorrent protocol, and Ludvig (Ludde) Strigeus, the writer of µTorrent. Together, we are pleased to announce that BitTorrent, Inc. and µTorrent AB have decided to join forces.
BitTorrent has acquired µTorrent as it recognized the merits of µTorrent's exceptionally well-written codebase and robust user community. Bringing together µTorrent's efficient implementation and compelling UI with BitTorrent's expertise in networking protocols will significantly benefit the community with what we envision will be the best BitTorrent client.

Could be an interesting combination as long as it doesn't result in µTorrent becoming yet more bloatware. |

Isn't the reason it is popular is because it isn't bloatware? I still prefer Azureus but I could switch if need be. |
