Aug 18, 2011 at 16:31 comment added Hailong Dao Very nice, +1. It is perhaps worth noting a counter-example in the non-domain case (when torsion-free means that no non-zero element is killed by a regular element). We can take $R= k[x,y]/(xy)$ and $M=R/(x)$. Then $M$ is torsion-free and $M^{\otimes n}=M$ for all $n$.
