Don't you need to sign into dropbox? You can still save the password

Ah, whoops. I was thinking about using a personal laptop. I'm pretty sure we were talking about public computers. In that case, yes, you do. My bad.
I was talking a personal computer... (or cell phone

Ah, well on a personal computer, no, once it's installed it logs in from boot.

Um... logic fail, but yeah. (">" means "greater than") So if you're just getting online to download a torrent then it's about equal. If you come across a link to a torrent during normal browsing, then dropbox would be way faster.

I wouldn't call it "way faster", maybe "slightly faster". You still have to save it and/or move it to a folder. Torrentflux you just have to add the step of hitting "upload"
And, of course, torrentflux works from any web browser (including cell phone). You can download completed torrents through it too, and adjust settings per torrent (such as tweaking upload and/or completion rules0
