"I read this to say that Piracy is legal if you don't charge for it." This statement is not accurate. See my prior post about the four factor test for Fair Use. The judge ruled that this specific use (which doesn't distribute full books online) was fair use. Putting a movie online would almost certainly fail the Fair Use test. This case is far too complex to be summed up as "Google putting full books online".
