I thought he was just being devil's advocate and trying to play the smug a**hole role. He was doing quite well at that.
Go to the RIAA-music download threads and there will be one or two of the same type defending the record companies against pure and simple 'theft' by downloading music.
They all do have a legitimate point, the law is the law and there are more than enough JBT's to enforce seemingly bad laws because they know that generally law abiding people will just keep quiet and do what they're told.

I do not agree with downloading for free something that has a cost attached to it.

However, I am no fan of the RIAA. Weren't they behind the big uproar over the DAT recorders a few years back? I like to make "compilation tapes" so I do not have to switch from CD to CD to listen to what I want to listen to.

No friggin' union should be able to limit my ability to do so.
