Just for your info. What would hosting a TOR exit node mean:
1. provide people in non-free countries a way to inform themselves without beein prosecuted.
2. provide bad people anywere the possibility to browse the net, exchange informations by staying anonymous

What now ? is the one hosting a Tor exit node a Bad guy ? or a good one.
Same is with the Pirate Bay. They just provide a plattform for people to exchange files and at the same time take off the load from the ISP's or source servers. Which is - in terms of the Idea behind the Internet - a very good thing.

Remember - you can bulid a Wall using a hammer, but you can also destroy that wall with that hammer.

So - this is a choice you have to take. The way the big labels are prosecuting small people just makes me They should rather adapt to the market and change their strategies instead of courting those small people who don't know it better.
