Is it legal to download an iDeneb torrent, and install it in Virtual Box? It will not be in any commercial use. What about for educational use (at home, not at the actual school; as in using mac software to complete homework, edit the video I need for school, etc.)

I would like answers for both parts to the question.

I find nothing that says it is illegal to download for personal use.

In fact, there are multiple sites to walk you through the process.

What I read "in the fine print on some download sites" is that the down load of copyrighted material is not legal. The sites I looked at, had a disclaimer of course that the people posting it for download were responsible to be sure it was not copyrighted, and most had a link for the owner of such material to ask for it to be removed.

So as long as nothing you download is copyrighted there is no problem.
