My major gripe with torrents is that it seems idiots seem to be smart enough to use VPNs (or VM's shaping is totally useless) yet not smart enough to avoid seeding flat out 24x7 and completely naffing up my connection forcing me away from VM who I was perfectly satisfied with until they started selling high speed unlimited without realising buyers would take that at face value. They even junked the last ditch protection of "detrimental usage" threats.

I personally don't use torrents, never have, never will. That's not some moral stand - I just think they are far far better ways of acquiring content (for better read faster and for want of a better word safer).
