It feels like rape.

What you describe is flagrant violation of copyright though and can and should 
be prosecuted. Anywhere!

Copying and sharing has been going on for centuries and doesn't have to 
infringe copyright (as in libraries for instance). Before the digital age it 
had it's barriers though, in the way that copies usually cost quality and too 
much sharing showed in ware and taire.
Now that copying and sharing is being redefined (high time too) the 
entertainment industry is putting up the stakes and is quiet willing to 
sacrifice our freedom for their own protection.
They're vultures and should be treated as such.

If copyright was held up the way it should be, most of the winblows PC's (I'd 
estimate 70-90%) around me would grind to a halt.
The MS users I usually have arguments with are always the ones who shamelessly 
use all kinds of cracks to get software running they haven't paid for.
That's the only way they can have running system that can compare with what 
we've got here, at a simular price.

Good luck,
