The fact that some teenager doesn't feel like paying for the music he listens to and shares with his friends, does not make it NOT illegal.
Okay then, answer me this: hundreds upon millions of people download illegally all over the world. Do we have the resources to investigate and prosecute each person? In addition, do we even have the technological capability of finding everyone, or even shutting down most of the file sharing services?
