Well, I usually avoid discussions on the legality of anything bittorrent. I'm no expert on how bittorrent works, but the legality of any online copyright infringement lies in whether or not the work is being copied and redistributed. With bittorrent, it's practically impossible to NOT redistribute the torrents you're downloading. With streaming, though, you're neither downloading nor redistributing.
