I have a pretty solid connection that has been sitting unused most of the time I'm not home. So I started thinking it would be a good deed to keep seeding torrent files of interesting projects. I already have a Raspberry Pi that's always on (since its my local DNS/DHCP server) so it was just a matter of installing a torrent daemon with a web interface.

My question is, what torrents would the SN community advise me to seed? Of course, I'm talking about content which does not infringe copyright terms. So far I am seeding ISO images for Linux Mint (Cinnamon and Mate), Xubuntu 14.04 and NOOBs (for the RaspberryPi) but I'm thinking there is a lot of other cool stuff that deserves more seeding. Do you know any?

    Better to have a second seed box or VM that is proxied out to a VPN if you want to do this.

    It'd be a pity to fined xx,xxx for a 50 year old movie, song...whatever. If the Jacksons and MLK's family have taught us anything.. it's that later generations still want to get paid.
