BitTyrant is a new, protocol compatible BitTorrent client that is optimized for fast download performance. BitTyrant is...

* Fast – During evaluation testing on more than 100 real BitTorrent swarms, BitTyrant provided an average 70% download performance increase when compared to the existing Azureus 2.5 implementation, with some downloads finishing more than three times as quickly.
* Fair – BitTorrent was designed with incentives in mind: if a user is downloading at 30 KBps, they should upload at 30 KBps. However, due to the unique workload properties of many real-world swarms, this is not always enforced. BitTyrant is designed to make efficient use of your scarce upload bandwidth, rewarding those users whose upload allocations are fair and only allocating excess capacity to other users.
* Familiar – BitTyrant is based on modifications to Azureus 2.5, currently the most popular BitTorrent client. All of our changes are under the hood. You’ll find the GUI identical to Azureus, with optional additions to display statistics relevant to BitTyrant’s operation.

Blimey! That is rather a selfish and elitist client. What else would you expect from something claiming to be a 'Tyrant' though. I can kind of see what they're trying to achieve with it, but I think they've certainly gone the wrong way about it. "Selfish" is by far the wrong word to use in the algorithm. Still, it's better than BitThief - that's just pointless and goes against the whole idea of BT.

I found the the blog and comments interesting - thanks for the link chris.
