Opinions vary when it comes to downloading torrents and whether you should or should not do it. The answer is simple: It depends. If you work for a company that shares files across a network for faster downloading, then it’s never a problem. If you access a website that lets you torrent movies, music and apps that you didn’t pay for, then that’s a no-no. Avid, the creator of Pro Tools, does not share or distribute its software through a peer-to-peer network. Therefore, you need to purchase it in order to have a valid license.
