What Should We Build Next?

A product isn’t worthwhile if it doesn’t meet the needs of its users. We’ve always developed Vuze with this in mind – getting feedback and recommendations from you, our users, as often as we could (that’s why Vuze is the most powerful and configurable bittorrent client there is!).

Today we make it even easier for you to voice your opinion on what torrenting features you would like to see developed next. Enter Vote for Vuze!, a forum where you can submit and vote on the features you want us to incorporate into Vuze.

Please visit and let us know what you think! We sincerely value your opinion (if it weren’t for you, we wouldn’t be here).

Please, go vote now!

Mirror, Mirror On The Wall

We’ve been making the case for years now that Vuze users are avid entertainment fans and early adopters of hot new technologies.  Recently, we decided to prove it, once and for all.  We set out to gather some data comparing you to the average Internet user.

Let me introduce you to yourselves.

In short, you’re:

• Heavy movie fans
• Avid online video buffs (at the expense of “live” TV)
• Trailblazing tech consumers
• Ultra connected online influencers
• Uniquely attracted to science fiction and animation content.

When it comes to entertainment and tech consumption, there’s no doubt that you’re the fairest of them all.  In fact, you may just be Hollywood’s best customers.

As valued customers, you’ve made it clear on how you want your online entertainment catered to your needs:

• Screen shifting:  More flexibility to watch your content on any screen you want (PC, Mobile, TV)
• Time Shifting:  More ability to download and watch your content whenever you desire
• Higher resolution:  More HD, and less grainy, stuttering, pixelated videos
• Content:  More science fiction and animation.

Your feedback has empowered us to speak on your behalf.  Stay tuned…

Who made the most Friends?

The time has come and our competition to make the most Friends has ended. So that the lucky winners of our limited edition t-shirts don’t get mobbed with Friends requests, I won’t publish their names here, but suffice to say, they will be notified and their t-shirts will be winging their way to them shortly.

Now, don’t stop making Friends just because the competition is over. Being Friends on Vuze is the best way to share torrents quickly, easily and securely. Better still, by being Friends on Vuze you can increase your download speed as you give each other preferential treatment when it comes to seeding. Don’t just take my word for it, see what an early fan has to say.

And if you want to add me as a Friend, feel free, I’m mobrien. I hope to share with you soon.
