Ads I didn't really mind that much.... I tested it, and the video quality is pretty good, and you don't have to wait for a torrent to come in when you missed a show. Plus it is legal, where torrents are not.

The biggest drawback I found is the webplayer. When you full-screen it on your 2nd monitor, and you move your mouse back to the first monitor to do other things, the webplayer jumps back to windowed mode, which is really annoying, and annoying enough for me to download the torrent of a TV show I forgot to put in my DVR or otherwise missed.

The webplayers from e.g. CNN and other video sites don't do this.

No torrents are legal, its the content you are trading in that's illegal. Don't lump the two of them together.
