My personal believe system is something along the lines of
1) Copy isn't theft, copy and modify/reuse is very central to human learning etc.*
2) If I copy something I can still pay for it because it's "the right thing to do" (especially if I profit from the copy in any way) and/or because I want the original content creator to continue doing what he/she does
*The law is usually not on this side, don't forget that. I try to follow most laws if they don't offend me too much.
