@LunarFlame17 If someone breaks into your house and steals your stuff, you have legal recourse against them and a justice system that should support you. Even if you couldn't catch the burglar you might also have renter's or homeowner's insurance that covers loss due to theft. It is true that all of those systems could fail, (don't catch the burglar, corrupt justice system, insurance fails to compensate) but my point is, there are social supports that help to protect your ownership. These supports don't exist for digital media because you don't own the content - you purchase a license to use it on the owner's terms.
