If you pirate admission to a game neither do you as well. Like c'mon.... have you seen the price for those new fangly hockey tickets, they are expensive as hell. I should steal them because I am OWED the right to admission, because I like the team. Same goes for airline tickets. Damn flights overseas are pricey. I should pirate those too. Hey Jetfuel, and 777 maintenance is free right?
The only reason people are piracy apologists, is so they can justify the fact they know they are stealing someone else's product or service.

What if the Airline charged you 5x the price and gave you 10 different tickets to destinations you didn't care about and weren't allowed to resell?
