Steve,

What we are talking about is the difference between something physical, and something not, an experience. When you pay for a baseball game, you are paying for the experience. You might argue that a music file is not physical, but it is. It is an object, which I can buy, and which I can keep. Buying music digitally is much more comparable to buying a CD, IMO, than to going to a baseball game. Now, if you want to compare it to watching a baseball game on TV, than I would say it's much more comparable to buying an old vhs tape of a baseball, produced, and sold by the MLB, its self.

I agree with you that if you watch a game on Cable or go to a ball game, the game is not yours. But what you are arguing is that if I purchase media of a baseball game, such as a VHS tape, whatever... That it also does not belong to me.

I don't condone people stealing music. I just said that because I understand why they do.
