If you own or have owned something which you have purchased in an agreeable transaction, it is legal to download off the internet as it does not classify as stealing due to the fact you own it.

Let's say, for example I have Final Fantasy VIII, which is a PS1 game. I got it years ago when it was on the PS1. My disc became so badly scratched it became unplayable, so I torrented the game and finished it off (took me 7 years xD). It is legal to download something which you own or have purchased.
