    copying is not theft, stealing a thing leaves one less left, copying it makes one thing more, that’s what copying’s for

      Ok now spend years of your life and your money making a thing that everyone just gets for free instead of paying you for. See if you feel the same way then.

      Copyright infringement isn’t even a crime, generally.

      In fact, it never used to be a crime at all, the crimes have only been on the books for about 15 years or less. The only reason there is “criminal copyright infringement” is because of extensive lobbying by wealthy rightsholder organisations. This further victimises individuals for corporate profits - they can raise prices even higher if people can’t turn to piracy instead.
