And I specifically called the digital versions illegal: if you have any illegal versions, that is illegal, regardless of your opinion.

I accept that the copyright laws can make it illegal to obtain something or to distribute something. What i wondered was how they or they in cooperation with other laws makes it illegal to have something. I am still not convinced that it is illegal in the US.
How it works where I live is for example that stealing a physical object is illegal and if you get caught this object will be confiscated. But having the object I do not think is illegal (I cannot remeber ever hearing about such a crime and a name for it but I can be mistaken). The same thing definitely holds when the crime is not theft but making a copy.
So therefore I tought it would be nice to read about how you implement a law system were having a copy of something is illegal.
