Get your head out of the sand and realize that there are legitimate things to download and not all torrent users should be automatically categorized into illegal downloaders.

true, but you do have to admit that most of the stuff that ppl dl with bit-torrent ain't legal. apart from linux distro's and things that are no longer copyrighted, what can you find that isn't illegal?

Still not really legal, but then it becomes an issue of whether it's really wrong.
