Copyright infringement isn't stealing.
My perspective on this was formed when I sold a chemistry program I wrote on a TI-85 to another student in 1997. It felt ridiculous to charge a lot for something I still had after selling it so I charged $1. Inadvertently beating Apple to the $1 mobile app market by 8 years, but I digress...
