Rob, if you walked in to a corner store, would you take a picture of a candy bar and walk out without paying a royalty to both the store owner and the confection's manufacturer? Stealing is stealing.

My main point was that people use copy protection as a way to justify their stealing. Most likely, the people stealing music now were stealing it back when Napster was a new thing (before CD copy protection). They just have a new “reason” to steal now.

PS - I don't see how taking a picture of a candy bar would be stealing. I see TV news reporters walking down an aisle of a supermarket all the time with product packaging in plain view of the camera. If anything, I would assume the manufacturer would be pleased with the free advertising.
