What does this have to do with copyright? This is stealing pure and simple. If you walk out of a museum with one of its art pieces, you're not going to get arrested for copyright infringement.

Stealing a physical thing is one thing, bit perfect copying of a digital item removes it from nobody's possession. And since I don't believe that companies have the right to infinite money for having stolen enough from previous endeavors to buy up the rights to things people like, taking it in any way you can is lawful regardless of if it's legal.
