   Stealing is stealing. However, the odd song recorded from the radio is...   
   1. Not copying thousands of files and sharing them (possibly for commercial   
   gain)   
   2. Untraceable.   
      
   Taking a pound from your mum's bedside table is wrong, but robbing a bank   
   waving a gun around is the one that's likely to land you in deep do-do.   
      
   See the difference, now? It's called scale.
