BitTorrent, the company behind the BitTorrent protocol and the Mainline and uTorrent clients, has just released some rather fantastic figures. Not only are over 100 million people using the two clients, but 20 million are downloading torrents on a daily basis.Considering uTorrent and Mainline combined only had around 75 million users in September, the rate of growth is nothing short of spectacular... Though having said that, BitTorrent states that over 400,000 people are downloading its torrent clients every day. If only a fraction of those go on to regularly use torrents, it's easy to see how it might reach more than 150 million users in 2011.
