Complying with the license to avoid breaking the law and risking a lawsuit is usually a very compelling argument for a business person. But not this one, that much is clear.

I love all the posts here about "breaking the law". I never see this much support when a content owner doesn't want their stuff shared on the torrent networks for free. Funny how politics plays into the rights and wrongs of society.
Sure. Ignoring all the other reasons to pirate something, like lack of legal alternatives or whatever, most people who pirate a song, film or whatever, don't do it for profit.
But there are people or enterprises profiting in piracy. Go to The Pirate Bay and type in anything and click on the search result. Heck, even go to the splash page. There are ads.
The songs and films and software on The Pirate Bay aren't funding the corporations or artists with the copyrights, but they are funding the revenue stream of TPB itself.
