Piracy is not stealing, not a serious crime, it is a different thing, and with untruth statements like this you are doing a bad favor to the industry.
I'm an author myself,and I see that as "the Prohibition in the United States". Exaggeration to this problem could backfire.
Copyright has been extended so much that is a flagrant abuse +70years from authors dead when it was 25 years from creation like a invention patent means a lot of people could seriously object to it, and win.
Is drawing Mickie Mouse a crime just because the corporations lobbied for it?
95% of the US population do and will pirate in their lives. Criminalization of piracy and sex means anybody could go to jail(it is so easy to put pirate cds in your enemy home and call police).
This population vote Obama and they could make him jobless on the blink of an eye. No matter what Obama says, if 90% of the people think something should be permitted(like drawing Mickie or copying a Beatles song they have payed four times) in a democracy, that is Law. If the president oppose, he can go home.
