Just in case anyone was doubting BitTorrent's decision to go legit, the company is partnering with PBS--that bastion of Muppets, Masterpiece Theatre, Bill Moyers, and totebag-fueled pledge drives. The Public Broadcasting Service announced today that it will be making its shows available for download via the file-sharing service.
The list of shows for BitTorrent users includes prime-time fare such as History, Detectives, Nova, and Scientific American Frontiers, as well as PBS Kids shows like Caillou and Teletubbies.
Media companies such as 20th Century Fox, Lionsgate, and MTV have already made paid content available through the BitTorrent, though it's long been regarded as one of the largest sources of Web-based media piracy.
