The sheer fact of the matter is that its theft; and you wanting to try and be biggerer and clevererer than everybody else on the forums makes no difference to that FACT.

When we're having a discussion about what is 'rightfully' mine it's a moral discussion. When we are having a discussion about what is legal, it's a legal discussion, that is axiomatic and you don't need to be a lawyer to undersand that. I'm not.
Now you are saying what us usenet downloaders do is illegal and that it's hurting the network. This, frankly, ****es me off. It's not illegal and you have no proof it hurts the network. Now your moral compus compels your heat to bleed for the media cartels, who themselves are corporate criminals/lawbreakers. That's your moral choice. Please don't confuse legality with morality. Writing it's a FACT doesn't make it a legal truth. It just shows your grasping at straws.
I appologise if I have come across to be 'bigger' than anyone. But I just laid out my arguments without personal insult.
