A lot of my files were shitty 480p versions of movies from the Napster days. Now they're all 1080p, with a few 720p exceptions (mainly tv series episodes). All in all 500 something files in total. Now just watching uTorrent slowly download them all. Hopefully my VPN keeps the eyes off of me...

Pardon me for living under a rock, but what's wrong with uTorrent?

Its installer comes bundled with bloatware, several years ago even having included a bitcoin miner in one of their releases.
