Which means the content provider doesn't care. Way more time and expense than it's worth to come after you for something like that.

There's a chap on a list I'm on whose was going on about comic books, and the fact that every comic book issued was scanned and available through file sharing within 24 hours after release, and who did he talk to at Marvel or DC to help stop it? The blunt answer was no one, because they didn't care. They didn't make their money from the comics -- they made it from licensing the works for films (Spiderman 1, 2, and 3, anyone?). They weren't about to waste the time and money going after the folks sharing the scanned files in what would ultimately be a futile effort.
