False. They ARE breaking the law. Downloading data that isn't yours to download is stealing. It's theft. However, just like the police going to the dealer to get the drugs bust, they're going to people who share, because they're giving the file as well as downloading. That makes them a source.
But no ... downloading only is not legal and they're still breaking laws.
