I use torrents for:
- TV-shows
- Music that is not available for digital purchase in my country
- Legal stuff (OS images etc.)
Movies are no good anyway, and Spotify covers my music needs for the most part.
(I too, am Swedish)
There should be a simple way to add a ppa from launchpad, without manually copy/pasting urls and downloading the key. That would fix most problems with getting bleeding edge software.
