Everybody here will be guilty of some kind of copyright infringment anyway and as far as money and materialism goes its obvious that with a lot of people its never ending and thats like a obsession like anything else.
I am not against capitalism and not against success by any means however inventors and people alike have far more value than a person like the boy wonder who likes to flaunt himself about like a cheap whore and complain about some shitty videos years old appearing on some site!

Here is the difference. When the TV studios broadcast a show they know people are going record it and that they will most likely fast forward through the commercials. They understand that and still choose to broadcast the show for free. Prince didn't choose to give his music away for free. Also, when I record a show or if I copy a tape or a CD I am just one person. Sure it is still a copyright violation, but I did it once even if I give the copy to another person it is just one person. When you put something on Youtube it could get hundred of 1000's of views. When you put something on a torrent it could get 1000's of downloads. So the difference is clear to see. Me making one copy of a tape of CD for a friend may not hurt them that bad. Me making 10,000 copies of it is a pretty big deal and if I put up a CD on a torrent site and it gets 10,000 downloads that is basically what I am doing.
