Funny you should mention that, but the seller didn't steal the books.
But to get back to your example --- so going to a liquor store, showing a fake ID to prove that your old enough and then paying for it is just as bad as going in with a gun and taking one bottle? That would be a more apt comparison of the actions we are discussing.
