Do you wish us to legislate rights based upon the current opinion of who (though equal in all other respects) should have them and who should not have them?

Or is it instead the case that we should see, as you do, that not decoding a signal being sent into your house is simply the morally logical (yes, that is what you imply) thing to do?

Your statement implies that you would be fine in not paying for content from the RIAA who has distribution rights to it, but that you do (by appeal to emotion) support paying for the content that DirectTV has distribution rights to.
