I think this is a broad and generally untrue statement. People aren't downloading tunes for free because they hate the majors, they're doing it because they can get what they want for free. Simple as that. The internet is kinda like a 365 day per year 24/7 riot going on where a whole bunch of people are looting. There are always the good the bad and the ignorant.

Again a very broad statement, how do you know you don't communicate with the likes of murderers etc. Do you know the exact background of everyone you deal with? I certainly don't!!

Don't get me wrong, I do not support piracy in any form, it's just I don't support broad sweeping generalisations either.
