Accessing a site such as Limewire to circumvent paying for a book or a song or a movie that is otherwise only available commercially is what it is – theft.

No it's not stealing. You can keep repeating that nonsense until the end of time, but it doesn't apply. It's no more stealing than an apple is the Eiffel tower. And if you want to sing Happy Birthday in public you better get your wallet out because it's copyrighted, and they enforce that crap.
