1. use piratebay
2. check comments on the torrents to make sure they're legit
3. download
4. after download complete click STOP SEEDING

I've been doing this since peer-to-peer first came out, I've downloaded thousands of gigs in movies and games, never once have I got a letter.
Same here. A decent antivirus program can't hurt either, just in case.

I rarely use torrents these days, and if I do it's from a private tracker.

For the most part I just download what I want from filehosts (ie. rapidshare, rapidgator, luckyshare, etc.). If you know the right boards to go to you can get anything you want. Not only movies, but games, software, ebooks, music, whatever.

That's exactly what I do....I only got a letter once back in 03 when I was using Ares

use Peerblock breh

ive read things like this are actually useless and your ISP can still see what you are doing.

anyway, torrents are the major thing that can get you caught up. for brand new rips just use other methods. blockbuster movies and popular shows like game of thrones are the type of thing that gets monitored. for shows ill just download them off blogs that link to bitshare or other hosting site. they usually get it before torrents anyway. for new movies i still use IRC.
