I did watch the video, it's just that on the issue of calling the act "stealing" he's wrong. And so are you, if you agree with him.
Note that I'm not adding "in my opinion", because this is not a statement of opinions: copyright infringiment is not theft in legal terms, and is a very different thing even in ethical and logical terms. Twisting words beyond their breaking point and muddling the waters is a rethorical technique, but it doesn't magically grant weight to the truth of an argumentation.
i.e. just because someone chose to call it "intellectual property" doesn't make it property. And where there's no property, how can be theft?
