    Correct, but how does that make it not piracy? Is something being piracy or not predicated on you being party to some deal?

    Let’s say a movie is not released in my country. I cannot buy it so I torrent it. Did I not pirate the movie because there was no deal I was involved in? Because that’s what your argument says.
