I found

http://www.copyright.gov/help/faq/faq-fairuse.html#p2p

that says "Uploading or downloading works protected by copyright without the authority of the copyright owner is an infringement of the copyright owner's exclusive rights of reproduction and/or distribution."

But I do not think it is obvious that exclusive rights if reproduction makes it illegal to have a work that you have gotten in an unknown way.
