Many of these piracy analogies are kinda weird. IMO the best analogy to pirating a movie is watching a football match from behind the fence. The stadium company isn’t getting your ticket money, but you’re not even the kind of person who would pay for that ticket anyway, so did anyone really lose anything? When watching the match from outside the fence, you’re not taking any seats, or bothering the paying customers. Where’s the harm in that?

Piracy isn’t piracy. Piracy is copyright infringement. Real piracy involves boats.
So if you want to be a proper pirate, run your BitTorrent client on a boat.
