Legal BitTorrent Communities for Class Presentation?

OnBeyondBeing asks: "A few of my friends and I are taking a class at a local university called 'Internet and Society' and we have to do a 'Technology Tour' on innovations that have social aspects or uses (like Google Maps, Kiko (an Internet-based calendar), LiveJournal and Frappr). We chose to do our presentation on BitTorrent. As part of our presentation, we have to do a lab in which the students and teachers use BitTorrent in some way. I was thinking of having people join some BitTorrent community that interests them and join a torrent, but most of these communities contain material that is not suited for an academic presentation. Aside from places like CommonBits and Etree (and others that were mentioned in a previous Slashdot post), what sites have you found that use BitTorrent as the basis of a community that are clean and legal enough for a class presentation? Alternatively, what other interesting, legal uses of BitTorrent have you found?"

There are always Linux Torrents

Cringely's NerdTV

Cringely offers NerdTV as a bittorrent download. As it is legal there's usually a ton of seeds on each download - nothing better to demonstrate the speed possible with bittorrent.

But at the same time looking for a bittorrent "community" with no illegal downloading is like finding a job to fit a tool. The approach to the problem is completely wrong. He should be showing that bittorrent is a tool. It is only a tool. It can be used for legal and illegal things. It just so happens that many illegal downloads' needs are fullfilled by this tool. He should be showing how it can be used any place where large frequently accessed files are in use to save bandwidth, since that is all it really does.
