It is a problem everywhere. I also choose not to support this "theft". I
know there are many ways to rationalise to yourself why it is OK. Cost, the
producer/artist is a millionaire (most aren't) etc. I have to imagine myself
as the artist in question and wonder how I would feel if my work was being
"lifted" Actually my wife and I have a clothing design business and we have
people with the "nerve" to ask how she came up with the idea (which is ok)
but then they ask about construction, fabric etc. Sigh some people will
just never get it...
