Illegality depends on country, I think in Europe (or parts of it) you can download for your personal use, but you can't distribute (e.g. you can only leech, you can't seed).

Legal in Canada as well.

Only the downloading part, not the uploading part. And I think that’s music only too.

To clarify in Poland it is only for media, so movies, music - so it is like in the days when one had cassette and recorded the music that was on radio (or VHS and TV) - allowed private use.

Download of software without license/approval (so illegal download) is prohibited.
