Here is what they do. They allow people to load anything they want on their servers for free, and they allow everyone else to download those files for free. However, downloaders can also pay a fee to download the files quicker if they want. That is how they make money. Plus, if you are one of the people that uploads files that other people download a lot then they give you free access to their quicker downloads.

There's nothing illegal about that business model.

I know how their system works because I've used their free service before. I was stealing. I guess I'm just one of those weird people who is dishonest enough to steal, but honest enough to admit it.

You weren't "stealing", but I assume you knew that before you chose that terminology.
