OK, let's try explaining it this way...You put time and money into creating *something.* Car, computer, program, whatever. Somebody buys it. Do you *care* if they sell it to someone else after they're done with it? No, you've been paid for it. You put time and money into creating something. Somebody breaks in and steals it, and possibly copies it and gives it to others. Do you care? And that's as far as I'm going with it.
Thanks. I seriously appreciate your effort to explain what theft of intellectual property is.
From that it should be obvious why we on the lemlists do not traffic in "warez" , that is bootleg s/w.
