To me, it's a form of stealing, and I wouldn't appreciate it if someone "stole" my stuff. So I don't do it .

But tons of people do....and that's okay for them.

It just seems that the same people that are all "bike thieves are the suck" are the same people that have NO problem not paying for their music/movies, etc.

But I do love that dramatic chipmunk!

Kell, if you steal my bike, you have deprived me of something tangible. That doesn't apply to music- my downloading a song doesn't take away someone else's ability to listen to that same song. I can't massively copy and distribute ZX6Rs, but I can do that with music.
