How is the Pirate Parti worse than the current system, which has no respect for the customer or for the general welfare? How does the current copyright law benefit society? How does DRM benefit the end user?

And no, no one has a "right" to make a living. Just because an author wrote something doesn't mean the public will think it's worth paying for. I'm not talking about piracy, I'm talking about crappy product.
