What you and most others miss is that people don't really care about the right of things when they pirate. It's a non-issue.

[hnal943]

Pirating is immoral regardless of the pirate's opinion on the matter.

[v0cab]

Merriam-Webster: "Definition of IMMORAL : not moral; broadly : conflicting with generally or traditionally held moral principles"

Based on this, whether piracy is moral or not depends on people's opinions. I would argue that society does not consider copyright infringement to be especially immoral.

Sing 'Happy Birthday' in public without paying the guy who bought the company holding the copyright to it. Is your audience disgusted by this immoral act?

Now the owner of the company holding the copyright sues you for your unauthorized use of 'his' song. Would more people think that you acted immorally, or that the copyright holder is acting immorally?
