How could he do that if all the torrent sites have been blocked? Why do the rights of people who don't mind being pirated need to be trampled on just to make it easier for people who do mind?
Then there's all the abandoned work, or other things nobody cares about commercially. Why does society need to lose access to those too, just because they were in the same place as a Justin Bieber song?
