The real issue behind piracy is societal values. I disagree. Every time the discussion is going that way, I feel we're hopelessly lost. There is very little Ethics debate on the industry behaviour: suing their customers, exploiting authors, and lobbying for draconian laws instead of using new business models. Hey, they are companies, they're just looking for their shareholders' interest! That's legitimate! It seems Ethics only apply to consumers. Call to ethics is the last refuge of inapplicable laws.
