If I'm downloading a torrent with 12 .avis and I only want one out of all of them, which version of BT do I need?

apparently G3 torrent has this ability, but i haven't used it much myself so i'm not very familiar with its interface.

BitTornado can do that. The site seems to be down right now though.

Azureus can do it, too. Double-click the torrent in question to bring up its tab, then click the Files subtab. Right-click on each file you don't want, mouse over "Set Priority" and click "Do not download". This works especially well if you have incremental file creation enabled. That way, it doesn't allocate the space for the files you don't want.

Azureus. I second the suggestion, I switched over to it, haven't even considered anything else since.
