I still disagree with this, this has more to do with the difference between a physical object and a digital one. If I shoplift 40,000 CDs, that is a big problem for the music industry - if I download the same amount, it's really not a big deal.

it is a huuuuuuge deal. I know that you know that many record labels are not sony pushing mariah carey. They are small start ups where 40,000 downloads could equate to sales for an entire quarter or total sales for a good chunk of their artists. That means bankrupsy. All because dl'ers are too intellectually lazy to put some comparisons on things, refusing to see the guy forfeiting the money as anything but a fat ass in a limo ear deep in hookers.
