Not as "copyright infringement," with its potential penalty of $150,000 per violation?

So, copying a single album or ebook would be prosecuted as petty theft, with a fine of up to a few hundred dollars as the maximum?

In which case, I very much want to know what jurisdiction you're in, and how its copyright laws are written.
