Is it a crime for me to xerox a poem i like and pass it around
to my friends?  Is it illegal to xerox a passage to a book and
take it to a class to discuss with the students?  Correct me if
I'm wrong but I think not.  Why then is it a crime for me to
share a similar item with my friends on a computer network?
I simply do not understand.
