Copyright v. Piracy: "It's not theft." by Illiad2008-08-27 16:36:18
  It does no harm. by hej 2008-08-27 16:45:08
Or at least no immediate harm, since there still are 100 places left for anyone that would want to buy a ticket.

That said, there are several reasons why one might say that they should have paid up. But there might also be reasons why these 100 couldn't do that this time. What one might argue is that they should have payed though, not that they should have stayed away (other than out of fear of getting caught).
