| To the original poster:
I was a poor college student for several years and could barely afford to purchase a record every couple of months. I was working two jobs to pay for grad school and couldn't think about luxuries like new audio equipment, more records etc.
The music industry didn't give me a pass back then because times were hard, so I listened to the radio. That's right, the radio and even though the fidelity wasn't the greatest and there were tons of commercials, I could still listen to music without having to resort to theft.
If you feel entitled to break the law because you can't afford a luxury, then I'm at a loss because that is just wrong no matter how you rationalize it.
