    So I kinda got into a fight last night.

    My neighbor got all mad when I said I was downloading the movie The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe. She told me I was stealing and she didn't like that. I told her that we were going to have to agree to disagree about downloading. She didn't drop it.

    I was told that downloading movie/music/TV shows was just like going into a music store and picking up a CD and then walking out. I told her that there was a big difference cuz that's shoplifting. She then asked me what I was going to do tomorrow night I said "Watching my stolen movie". She got mad and left.

    What's your opinion on this?

            So you think it's the same as shoplifting?

                Rob her house..steal her TV ,dvd and stereo...let her stew on that for a while maybe she can re-evalute her stance on downloading and where it comes to play in the whole big picture of crime and theft....does she relize ..speeding in a car and performing anal and oral sex are against the law?...so is ripping off that label that comes on the mattress and pillows !

                              Technically, you are not stealing. You are receiving stolen property.

                                  Often times I wonder why
                                  There's love and hate, theres live or die.
                                  When sickness comes I must decide:
                                  When feelings go, theres suicide.

I've done so much stuff in the past that spending the rest of my life emulating Mother Theresa isnt going to get ME in heaven, so fuck it, keep on downloading ..... look around, there are far worse things you could do. And before some smartass says it - this not moral equivalence, its a recognition that in absolute terms the world is full of sin, but in pragmatic terms there degrees of sin. Sort that one out .....

She told me I was stealing and she didn't like that. I told her that we were going to have to agree to disagree about downloading. She didn't drop it.
                                                    That's like "agreeing to disagree" about the acceleration of gravity being 9.8m/s squared: it is, like it or not. Downloading a movie you didn't buy is clearly theft and clearly exactly the same as stealing it from a store, minus the cost of packaging.

                                                    If you want to steal, fine, but don't kid yourself about what you're doing and keep your hands off my shit.

                                                              I think stealing a physical product, something that has already been produced, packaged, purchased by a store owner and shelved for sale is different than downloading a digital copy of the same item.

                                                              And for people who say, "but the stores and the company lost your sale because you downloaded it", bullshit, just because you download a digital copy does not imply your only other option was to buy a copy. I could of just watched it at a friends house when he rented it? Or I could of watched a friends stolen copy without knowing it was fake, does that imply that I also stole it, or perhaps helped conspired to steal it?

                                                              I think digital downloads enter a very grey area of law...

                                                                I personally don't download movies from the internet or buy pirated DVD's and stuff. I get my music from allofmp3.com which I pay for each song or album downloaded.

                                                                I'm not judging you for doing so either tho. Its just my personal choice but I'd never call anyone a thief for downloading movies from the internet.

DVD's we have to wait a few months (unless uber popular world wide launch), or even upto a year (tv shows) to be offered the choice to watch them / buy them "legally"

And if you really liked the movie , be sure to go see it in the cinema / buy a dvd / rent a dvd . That's what i think .
