“A good analogy would be you get in your car to drive home. On the way home you get a cellphone call informing you five separate people had stolen your car earlier in the day. You continue driving home in your car and find out 3 more people had stolen your car in the interim.

While you were sleeping later that night, with your car safely in your garage, 18 different people stole your car. In the morning you get in your car and drive to work again.”

Silly analogy.....A better one would be people taking pictures of your car.

No, because a picture of a car has little value. A copy of a car can be driven like the original, just like a copy of a song has the same utility as the original.
