I would say whether piracy is theft is beside the point. It doesn't change the fact that it is not something one should do.
Of course it's kinda hypocritical for us to point fingers over abusing intellectual property. How many threads based on other people's works have any of us been in? I can't tell you how many threads I've seen based on Batman, Harry Potter, Star Wars, Firefly/Serenity, X-men...etc...etc...that no one here owns the rights to.
The whole issue is a huuuuge grey area when it comes to Lit.
