You could preface a torrent with similar warnings, for example PD only in the US could be added to a text file inside the zip and to the description page at piratebay/mininova wherever you add the tracker.

Bittorrent gets a bad rap because it is often used to obtain illegal material, but the technology is great for distributing large files like linux ISOs and even used for downloading patches in games like World of Warcraft. The power of bittorrent comes in when there isn't a third party willing to host material, for example what happens if project gutenberg goes broke or gets hacked. Multiple torrents of PD material shared over the internet makes it practically impossible to 'lose' material as long as people seed it.
