The fact is illegal stuff is illegal. We can try to justify it or say it's inevitable, or that it's prosecuted wrong, but if the activity is illegal it's still going to be illegal.

If a store is selling goods which people keep walking by and stealing, you may see the store as lazy and needing to adjust it's business to make money. But the fact is, people shouldn't be stealing their goods. No matter how stupid the store is, people aren't entitled or justified in any way to steal their goods. Whether they have a good business model is irrelevant.

I'm not trying to act like I'm above downloading stuff. I'm not. But I really don't get how people can take something without paying for it and blame the company that owns it for not adjusting the business model to accommodate for their stealing.
