Again you cite another example of a real-world thing, and in this case it doesn't even make sense. Sure you can photocopy things, but it costs money, lots of money. You're paying for toner, electricity, the machine, the paper. You can't compare a photocopier to the copying of a digital object. Not now, not ever. Doesn't work, can't work. The photocopier is ruled by the laws of scarcity, whereas the digital file has no scarcity.
You can agree to disagree, but you're wrong on every argument you've put forth. Wrong about the technology, wrong in your analogies, wrong about the economics. Your reaction is emotional and is clouded by your initial, and erroneous assumption that copying = theft. The MAFIAAA want you to believe that, their whole corrupt existence rests upon your believing that lie.
