    Stealing is stealing regardless of how sneakily it is done.
    I think the problem is that downloading music is seen as a victimless crime as oppose to say mugging little old ladies (not that anyone round here would do that).

    Man that thread is funny. Stealing isn't right no matter how or where you do it.

    It depends on where you live. Downloading songs is legal in most countries, so is online poker.

    Getting something that is not yours is stealing whether online or offline. But if you can't help downloading stuff from the internet, just don't get caught :D

    I agree it is stealing but it doesn't stop me from downloading music/movies. When I go to the shops and i see how overly expensive music and movies can be..
