I agree. But then I'm the one that's been saying that I believe most people don't bother justifying it at all. They just do it and don't worry about the philosophical points.

That's been my experience when talking to: my father-in-law who has a vast collection of tapes copied from movies rented from blockbuster, my coworker who uses Kodi to stream movies and other coworkers who use other services. When I ask about the morality of it , I tend to get a shrug or a smirk or a dismissive "whatever..."

The only times I've encountered the twisted justifications discussed here has been in online forums.
