Ted: Automatic TV torrent downloader
Being TiVoless, I've tried a couple programs that claim to be able to automatically download the TV shows I want to see, but have always returned to doing it manually. Ted is another such program, but it has the distinction of being a cross-platform Java app. It also seems to have a clean and simple interface, but looks like it only supports one RSS feed for each show, which may cause problems if the shows you like are on the obscure side. When it finds a new episode of one of your shows, it'll automatically load it into the BitTorrent client of your choice and start the download.

It is nice that Ted is cross-platform, and it also seems to have very clean and simple user interface.

I think Azureus with a plug-in is still better than Ted. It just requires another 2 sec of configuration. See http://tv-rss.net/2007/06/how-to-auto-queue-new-tv-rss-torrents.html for a dummies guide.

You should check out TVTAD. It will integrate with almost any torrent client. Much easy to configure and search feeds.

All these RSS readers, but where are the TV BT trackers with RSS Feeds, that work? The only ones I could find take you to another page (such as bt-tv.net sends you to mininova). I need RSS feeds that take you to the actual tracker.

3. is doing this really legal?
Is using your VCR to do the same thing legal?

This is as legal as using a search engine. Once it gets handed off to your Bittorrent app, that's when the legal fun starts.
