I have a very extensive torrent file collection on my SkyDrive (well over a thousand torrents), and have had it on there for a long time (before SkyDrive existed, when i was only using Live Sync). 99% of that collection are torrents to copyrighted works. Some from Pirate Bay, some from Private trackers.

I also have a few folders of 'Funny' images, some of which can certainly be classified as tasteless, extremely graphic pornography (what can i say, i have sick sense of humor).

Nothing is shared with anyone, and i access it daily from the SkyDrive App on my Windows Phone, and from my Netbook via the web from a million different places all over the state, country, and a few countries in Europe.

Never had it taken down. Not a peep from anyone.

The nightmare scenario is a database of checksums on Microsoft's servers which is continually referenced once your files land on the server. But i doubt it, maybe naively.
