One more thing. It is easy to throw around terms like "big-time recorded music bosses", but that is known as shifting the premise. This isn't a fight to protect the right of the masses to rip off the big boys. Stealing is stealing whether it is from Warner Bros. or Folk Legacy or Camsco. To allow your logic to stand would be to say that it is OK to steal from Target as long as you don't steal from the Mom and Pop store down the street.

I understand your need to demonize the industry, but to do so gets one arguing on whether they have right to charge what they do, instead of on whether it is OK to steal the intellectual property of others.
