Well, if you realize that it is not stealing but infringement of a right created by laws it is easier to understand. We have an invented right on one side and destroying a very good thing that have stimulated progress and inventions in ways that would not have happened without it (the internet) on the other side. So do you destroy the internet and all the advantages or do you change the copyright laws to some other form that works together with the internet?
