That's an interesting take, but false in a lot of juristictions. Even if we ignore question of if the model can distribute work, in many places even downloading content is illegal. Otherwise the person torrenting a movie would be totally in the clear, or thing about what MS would say if a company "just" downloads copies of Windows to use on their computers without ever distributing them. |

Any examples of people being sued for merely downloading? "Torrenting" basically always involves uploading, even if you stop immediately after completion. A better test would be if someone was sued for using an illegal streaming site, which to my knowledge has never happened.
