Yea, torrents and tubes are popular for vcr/radio/commentary like Viagra is popular to increase bloodflow throughout the body. Nope, sorry...people use torrents and tubes to get shit for free that they would otherwise have to pay for, and people use Viagra to make their penis hard. You can try to pretend otherwise to make your point but it doesn't change the truth.
I have a question though - you say not everything should be free. What is your opinion of places like Rapidshare charging money for premium access/faster download of copyrighted material? How is that any different than someone recording a VHS of copyrighted material and reselling it, which is against the law?
