The company developing the well-known BitTorrent client µTorrent, on Thursday launched its cloud service Share, which allows file sharing according to a well-known principle: the user selects a file on his computer, then the recipient and shares a link with it.
Unlike DropBox and other paid services, Share is absolutely free and has no restrictions on file size; Also, no subscriptions are required. Of course, file sharing is done using P2P, and as the storage itself, the cloud service Amazon S3 is used. Curiously, the user thus does not need to “stay on hand” - Amazon will play this role for him; moreover, when files are successfully downloaded by all recipients, they will be removed from the cloud - thus ensuring anonymity.

A number of social functions are also provided for the service: in addition to the obvious choice of those to whom the file is intended, users can comment on the “distribution”, sharing their opinions about its usefulness.
At the moment, the client application of the service is in alpha version and is available only for Windows.
