I was going to recommend the test and bearstart utility but thought he or she might be slightly novice and not bothered in what type of client he or she uses.

As for leeching... I like the way you can turn off 'partial sharing' and then when you have the file just 'unshare' it.

As for legality... thats entirley about popular, commercial content. If its not in the 'top 10' and if its not alreayd making the companies billions already (Which it is!) then they don't want to know.
