I used bitfetch every now and then, and it worked OK for a while, but it often doesn't download torrents correctly anymore and it looks in general like it's mostly an abandoned project.

Basically bitfetch is a seedbox, but with pay-per-GB instead of a monthly fee, and it's intended mainly for downloading rather than seeding. I like this model a lot because I don't download enough torrents to justify a continuing seedbox subscription, and it's much faster than downloading+seeding a torrent on my rather slow Internet connection.

It'd be nice if someone would create an alternative to bitfetch. I'd definitely use it.

It worked for me several days ago.  Now they just need to get their bitcoin address generator working as you cannot deposit.  They will probably fix it in two weeks.  They're pretty slow on fixing things.
