OK, your point on theft is taken; it is legally different. But that still doesn't make it right to illegaly download something you don't have the right to use. It just irks me that so many people feel it is ok to rip off artists. Regardless of it being theft or not you are ripping off the people that made the music, software, etc. if you download it without paying for it.
I am not saying this judgement was right, only that downloading the music and making it available to others is not right either.
As for being a troll...just because I have a different view than most of the techno-hippies on /. does not make me a troll....
