This is pretty amusing, considering google gets its searches rated by real people. Probably something to do with the fact that with google you dont need to visit a webpage in many cases to get your answer.
Yep. If you steal something you deprive the owner of the original. With copyright infringement the owner loses nothing. You wouldn't steal a car (I assume) but if you could make an exact duplicate for next to nothing and the owner gets to keep their car then most people would agree it's not as bad
Poor analogy. You arent just making a copy and doing no harm to anyone. If i intended to sell said car, a car which i developed and created myself, and you ran around offering copies of it for free then i do not see how most would agree you are not hurting anyone. Same goes for your TV argument.
