I personally believe that information should be free for those who want it. Libraries were created in support for this. Information should not be held and restricted by the wealthy and trying to do so is oppression.
I see absolutely nothing wrong with pirating a book, just like any other true intellectual. Its similar but relate able situation is to that in universities. Lets say a student sits in on a class in which he has not registered to take. Implying that he has not paid to take the class. I have never met a professor who will kick a student out of a lecture, who was not registered. The reason being, is they the professors love to spread information.
I feel pirating a book is not actual theft mainly because the book could have been rented or read at a Library.
