I think the stance is still "it's legal so long as you currently own a copy of the disc."

Otherwise, it is absolutely not legal.

If you do not own the PC version, it is not legal for you to download a torrent of said PC version.

but why is it fair for them to take more money away from me if i already bought a version of their game?
