I've just finished polishing off my first draft of a server that makes it super easy to download movies. You start by entering in the movie you want to watch. Seconds later it returns a list of torrent files to download that it's grabbed from all over the web (Pirate Bay, TorrentReactor, Demonoid). After you click one to start downloading the movie, the server talks to your Transmission bittorrent client to update it's progress so you can keep posted on the progress of your movie. To make it look pretty and be useful, It also queries the rotten tomatoes API to get cover art, ratings, and a link to Rotten Tomatoes to watch trailers.*It's an attractive interface that makes it easy to download movies.
If you're interested or you just want to see more, I've written up some documentation and posted screenshots on GitHub to try and help people get this set up. You can check that out here. There are also more technical details and a complete list of features posted there.
Cheers,
