Being Philosophical you could argue that all you are stealing are ones and zeros that happen (when processed) to resemble the sound someone famous once made in a recording studio. If you add a slight interference you could argue it's not the same song.

However, this trend of thought would send capitalist software/music companies into disarray. So I think current society probably should consider it a minor form of stealing.
