If I shoplift a bag of Doritos, the shop has one fewer bag of Doritos. If I pirate a show, it doesn't disappear from Disney's hard drives.

- lillesvin 7y agoPeople use "steal" like that all the time. "You stole my idea." "He stole my look!" "She stole my song." Etc... So I don't really think that's a very good argument.

- lonelappde 7y agoThe shop doesn't care about the Doritos. The owner isn't going to eat them. The shops only care about getting paid by who takes the Doritos.
