Look at this from this angle. Putting a value
on content is not something that is black or white. I'm sure some artists would gasp that
you wanted to pay only 25 cents for their music.

listen, it's the record companies that make all the money! I imagine the artist get's right around a quarter a CD. What does a major label pay per CD to have made? I'd imagine in the neighborhood of one dollar or less

Another example, not everyone likes those indie low budget movies. I personally like those big budget movies like Transformers.
If piracy makes bankrolling those kind of movies unfeasible, it wouldn't sit well with me.

Yes big media and big software companies are ripping us off. But that is no excuse to pirate copyrighted works.

I'm finshed dropping my pants & grabbing my ankles for these record companies. When was the last time you enjoyed every single song on a CD? If you did, what was the CD?
