Nonsense. If someone wants to share a song from a CD he legall purchased, there is nothing wrong with that. Downloading an mp3 for free is not theft, as the mp3 file has no corporeal existence. Unless you are worried that Britney Spears may have to purchase her blond hair dye off the shelf.

I don't think anyone will want copies of my latest ones, Torchwood (Official)or Shut It!:The Sweeney Soundtrack.

You are flat wrong. You are so wrong I don’t even know where to start.

Your argument is that people don’t own the music they write, create, produce, etc. That is, of course, a slap in the face of everyone who works for a living - but as long as you get free stuff, you’ll probably be happy.

Of course downloading MP3s is theft, as well as software, movies, etc. By your argument, child porn would be legal, since JPGs don’t have “corporeal existance”.

Good luck with that.
