Seriously! You saved some time by downloading from iTunes rather than via bittorrent. Was that time worth thousands of dollars?

  I also think it's wrong to take music without paying for it.

      You see, I carefully didn't use the word "steal" to avoid the copyfight pedantry, but that wasn't enough for you. "Copying" commercial music that you didn't pay for is unethical, just like "copying" a typeface family, "copying" a website design, or "copying" and black-labeling a GPL'd software package.

  I know, right! I mean, if music weren't free to produce and distribute it'd be one thing, but since it is, why doesn't everybody use bittorrent?!?! sigh

  Those thousands of dollars went to pay for the time of the people who created the work that I paid for. Kind of like people pay me for my time.
