First of all, morals and ethics are completely subjective.

While I don't think there's anything wrong with someone doing it for their own personal use, I am against people doing it for money because they are profiting from someone else's work.

That being said, this is way too harsh. Copyright infringement when done for profit should be punished with fines and not being able to use the internet or a computer for a while, not jail time.

 

I agree. There's too much effort wasted trying to fight copyright infringement while there are much more serious criminals to fight.

 

I second this. Jail time was a bit harsh. Just heavy fines would have done, not taking up a jail cell's spot from a murder or someone who more deserves that spot.
