Good or bad move ????

Opera has released a version of its web browser with the BitTorrent client built in. Users clicking on a Torrent file will see the file load in Opera's traditional Transfer window, so for most file transfers, there's no need to install a third-party BitTorrent client. To Opera, it's simply another MIME type, like Gopher and Usenet before it.

We asked Christen Krogh, Opera's VP of Engineering if he feared a "chilling effect" from the Supremes decision to bounce the MGM vs Grokster case back down the legal chain.

OPera lost market share because of Firefox. They are now grasping at straws to try to get some back.
