Why do consumers have the right to their choice of form, channel and price? They don't have any particular "right" to these choices. But that doesn't mean the choices disappear. And it also doesn't mean that real value is not created by offering them, even if it's done illegally: the Pirate Bay has probably created more real value in this world than most startups could ever dream of.

Nothing at all, that's exactly what happens a lot of the time. With most digital media it just so happens that there are plenty of illegal "sellers" that are willing to step in with terms that are more suitable to the buyer. It may not be legal or "right", but it's pretty damn efficient.
