Let's look into this concept of yours: as long as I can get away with
stealing from you you have little problem with my thievery. If I can
get
a huge number of folks to steal your goods from your store, you will
like it even better.

Makes perfect sense.

As much sense as comparing apples and oranges.

You cop out. You do not take resoonsibility for your actions. End of
story. Unless you're ready to love your own for-sale goods walking out
of your own store without you receiving any compensation at all you have
no valid logical basis from which to posit that your own favorite way of
stealing music is justifiable. This is apples to apples, so don't be
such a fruitcake about it.


People aren't making copies of my merchandise and sharing them. Apples and
oranges.


VERY weak... I won't even buy it long enough to ask if you design and
manufacture all of your product line. There are probably plenty of copies
of all of your product out there in other retail stores... just as with CDs.

Now you're definitely trying to play apples against oranges. VERY weak
indeed....

We're talking about physically STEALING from you, in the same sense
that when you download from a P2P - someone first stole the product
to place it there, and if you take it you are complicit... and if you put it
there, you ARE the thief... the same kind of thief that has the keys to
your stores and opens them up for all of their friends to take what they
want without paying you or your distributors & vendors.
