When was the law enacted and where can I find it?

But you're TAKING the jacket that they COULD have sold to someone else.

I'm not talking about the law.....I'm talking about a philosophical definition of stealing.

In order for me to steal something from you, I have to remove it from your posession.

I will agree that if I DL an album, and then repackage it and sell it....that could be construed as stealing.

But sharing is not stealing. I'll NEVER be convinced otherwise.

Comparing DLing music to killing another human being....nice try...but that's the same analogy that some local cops use to justify drug laws...and it's horseshit when they say it too.
