Only if you want an interface filled with ads.

Not only the apps's interface, but in my experience it also installs adware as browser extensions.

Pay for it then? Netflix scratches my entertainment itch now, but prior to it launching in Australia I almost went ahead and paid for uTorrent. It's a good, lightweight client. Software that works well deserves to be financially supported.

Why? qBittorrent does a better job and it's open source in case you need to modify it.

The parent comment was suggesting paying for uTorrent to remove the ads, not paying for Netflix. (Although paying for subscriptions to overseas services might also be an option.)

qBittorrent is just as good and free, why pay for something that's maybe a few MB smaller? Do you really not have gigabytes of RAM on your machine? If you don't, I suggest spending that money on RAM.
