In fact, copyright infringement isn't theft, legally speaking — at
least according to the U.S. Supreme Court. That's because intellectual
“property” isn't really property; stealing your car deprives you of
the use of your car, but copying a song doesn't deprive the artist of
anything but the theoretical revenue from a theoretical lost sale.

Wow. Copyright infringement isn't theft? Maybe it isn't technically considered theft (admittal of ignorance here; I honestly don't know), but it sure feels that way to me. If you didn't pay for the rights to keep that song/movie on your hard drive, then I don't think it should be there. Your 'close personal friend' on the other side of the globe may graciously allow you to download it, but that doesn't make it OK.

Someone should pick this up, call it Think Stealthy or something.
