I've heard this argument before, but I just don't buy it.

Is this less of a crime than the guy who steals the $200 tv from someone's house? By what criteria do you consider this to miniscule? From my understanding (which is far from complete), the amount of money made by either party on the product is not a factor in copyright law.

Has anyone actually been involved in a copyright dispute that resulted in some level of criminal charges being brought forth? Is the process of filing a claim drastically more involved that filing a claim for theft of private property?
