Softonic review

Stream and download at the same time

BitLord is a free P2P software that allows you to download and stream anything with ease. Developed by House of Life, this program is a proprietary BitTorrent client for both PC and mobile platforms. It’s free but not open-source like other similar programs so instead, it is supported by ads. The features here work a little bit different compared to most, so you may have to consult the online documentation to figure things out.

Is BitLord a virus?

Considered the easiest torrent downloader around, BitLord was built using Python and the Qt cross-platform framework. It uses the libtorrent-rasterbar C++ library and its built-in browser was based on Chromium. In terms of credentials, this software appears to be reliable but it really shines through its features. For one, you can download any type of file that you find through its search function—whether it’s movies, songs, e-books, or other media. 

Another cool feature is its ability to stream videos while there are on-going downloads in the background. It uses a built-in version of VLC media player so you can instantly play any video. Additionally, you can play them on a TV or other screens via Chromecast. You can even easily enable subtitles in various languages thanks to its full integration with OpenSubtitles. If you’d like to organize your collection, you can create playlists.

This software is usually safe to operate—however, it’s often mistaken for a virus of the same name. There have been many reports of users finding this download client a malicious virus but it’s usually due to one being named after it to trick people. As long as you download from the official website and other trusted platforms, you’ll be fine. If you want added protection during torrenting, it’s also recommended to get NordVPN.

May have security risks

All in all, BitLord is a great free alternative to other BitTorrent clients. While you’re going to get ads every now and then, the program is reliable enough and offers various handy features for anyone who likes to video-stream during downloads. It’s important to be careful when downloading this for the first time, however, as there are viruses that try to pretend to be the EXE file for this.
