But those rules and regulations (at least in the UK and US) came after the existence of libraries was an established fact. And in a sense, you're only really arguing that the problem with filesharing on the internet is that its not regulated/legal. Well one solution would be simply to make filesharing legal, which would deal with the substance of your objection. I'm guessing you wouldn't see that as acceptable, but you haven't really made a case for why you think that.
