I think a lot of people first come to the forums because they've used Google to find discussions about a topic of interest. (As I recall, that's how I ended up here myself.) Since the connection between the forums and the torrent listing is rather obscure (a single link at the very bottom of this page), I'm not too surprised that people can end up here and not know about the listings.
I find the torrent listings very useful myself, but I'm someone who actually does care about the distinction between licensed and unlicensed materials. I'd agree with SoL, though, that if the listings went away I wouldn't have a problem finding series I'm interested in. I'd definitely prefer abolishing the listings as opposed to adding licensed materials.
