Not really. Sites that host the illegal .torrent files for copyrighted software are dying (RIP SuprNova :() but the system itself is very much alive. The beauty of BitTorrent is you don't need to rely on someone else to keep it running. You can have your own tracker and manage it all yourself.
I've done a little research since my previous post and I've set up a tracker on a test server and it works. It's just a little Python script that needs to be run and that's all there is to it. It has very little overhead on the server (it only keeps track of who is connected and how much they of the data they have) so it's not a resource hog.
