Thanks you guys. Also, @Infernus Animositas, if you're already in trouble for something else, you'd want to distance yourself from anything else that could worsen things. So I think I'll refrain.

Always use encryption, torrents I think cannot encrypt you when you upload, Deluge and qBittorrent are good for torrents, you risk only if you upload- usually the popular torrents are riskier. Transmission is good but that is a non-windows program.
It really depends what you need help with, I'll try to help but I'm no wizard.
It's not illegal if you don't get caught lol just don't mention it to anybody you know in law enforcement. It REALLY gets illegal if you try to sell the music or generate some kind of money for profit in your favor.
Pretty sure this is one of those legal situations where you'd get sued, not arrested. Also, in the case of non-torrents, it'd be the person hosting the files, not the person downloading them (torrents, obv, everyone's the host). Also, in the case of reality, if anything it'd be a strongly worded letter/email telling the host to take shit down, because I can't imagine anyone bothering otherwise.
@dj4uk6cjm This, no one here would be stupid enough to try something like that, I'm hoping.

Especially if it's a small company, they won't send letters, unless you're silly enough to use popular torrent sites while using Utorrent and Bittorrent, comcast usually looks into it, the rest don't, I've never had comcast actually, I hear they're pretty uptight about it.
