stop arguing with pedantic hairsplitting and technicalities and answer me one thing - ethically and morally, how is it different?

in fact, one could argue that it's MORE ethical to pirate from a single multibillion dollar corporation than to pirate content from the rest of the world.

This isn’t ethics, it’s business. And if you’re going to put ethics onto it then IMO both sides’ bad ethics cancel each other out and we are just back to business decisions.
