I saw this coming long ago, back in the 80s, when record labels started to complain that public libraries didn't have the right to lend their recordings, claiming that their ownership didn't give them the right to lend it to others. They got shot down in court of course, but they just waited until the political environment would be more welcoming to their sociopathic policies.

Pirate EVERYTHING!
