LOL. I love statements like that.
Lets find the "middle ground" between property owners and thieves. I'm sure they can "compromise". Next time a mugger/carjacker/home invader tries to take your stuff remember that ownership is just a matter of opinion and you should "find a middle ground". -- Don't feed trolls--it only makes them grow!

well in a legal way he makes sense though. Someone using a copyrighted tune in say a Youtube video is not doing it to steal the music.
More likely its that they want to reduce the legal burden of the court system that is being choked with someone downloading a single movie or sending notices to Youtube because someone posted a clip from the Simpsons. -- [65 Arcanist]Filan(High Elf) Zone: Broadband Reports
I disagree. I'm not a lawyer but I believe that there's "fair use" in the copyright law to cover situations like you suggested. Using a copyrighted work. in full and without permission, is stealing IMO. -- Don't feed trolls--it only makes them grow!
