I'm not quite understanding your question about whether it's okay. If you are asking if it's legal, no, it isn't. By downloading the file, you are creating an unauthorized copy of a copyrighted book. If you are asking whether it's ethical, that's a completely different question, but I'd probably say no to that one as well. That one's up for a lot more debate. If you are asking if you will get in trouble, the answer is almost definitely no. The fact that TPB operates internationally makes it a jurisdictional nightmare, and I don't ever see an international copyright case against millions of users happening.
