Every time somebody calls copyright infringement stealing I read it as "propaganda speech" and they in principle loose the argument directly from my point of view. And I think I am not alone in this opinion. Especially people that download things and commits copyright infringements usually is well read up on these kind of arguments and on the difference between intellectual property and other properties so you will not gain any points by pretending that there is no difference.
And intellectual property rights did not occur to give advantage to the writers. They were designed to give an advantage to the whole society. So if some other system gives a better advantage there is nothing that says that we cannot change the system.
