The BitTorrent team has released µTorrent beta 1.5. You can download build 24963 directly from here: µTorrent for Mac. The new version adds many of the features already available on the Windows version:
  • µTorrent Remote: Simple, secure access to µTorrent from anywhere. No complicated network configuration required. Add and manage your torrents from any browser, mobile browser and even an Android native app.
  • Feeds: Subscribe and follow torrent RSS feeds right inside µTorrent. Set up Smart Feeds to auto-magically fetch torrents and start downloads for you.
  • Scheduler: Now you can set µTorrent to start, limit and stop activity at regular intervals throughout the week. This is a valuable feature for those of you stymied by metered and shared networks.
  • Advanced controls and info: Want more control and information about what's happening behind the scenes? Upgraded logging features include much more detail. Also, feel free to access the double-secret-super-advanced preferences (they're hidden behind CMD+OPT+,). Use sparingly and wisely.

If you want more information, check out the full release notes for the Mac client. The BitTorrent team is asking for your feedback on the beta in µTorrent Mac forums.
