This is bad because? Simply because everyone does something does not make it ok. I begrudgingly read this link. While I think that most of the bands that whine about copyright infringement are idiots and hypocrites, they are right in a way. Metallica, that much vocal band, have bragged about bootlegged copies of their first albums bringing them to fame.

But the artists that complain about the losses from copyright violations, make most of their money from tours and merchandising. If you look at Indy artist, they freely give thier music away.

But, simply saying that it is dumb doesn't make it right. Saying you wrote something original, while not likely, we'll say this for argument's sake: You write a popular piece of literature or music, everyone wants it, someone buys it and puts it on the internet, and you stop recieving payment... are you gonna scream about: your "right" to recieve payment, or your "right" to recieve copyrighted material free of charge?
Answer me this I have bought darkside of the moon by pinkfloyd on albumes cassetes cd 10 to 15 times over the years when do I get the right to listen to it undamaged or scrached why not make a law that says I only have to pay once the music industry will never agree to that should I pay agin or download it for free if I get it for free should I go to prison for something I have payed for so many times already.
