Yeah, there is the argument that by "illegally" showing people music or
whatever that they didn't pay for, they might well go out and buy a copy
themselves.
I still find it slightly weird that if I ask a friend to copy a CD for
me, that's illegal. But if I turn on my radio and listen to the exact
same music, that's completely legal. Either way it costs me nothing, and
it's the exact same music. WTF?
