    The buyers/downloaders don’t get caught is just because there are too many of them and going after the distributor is an easy target.

      In Canada it’s legal to download and watch content for personal use, so it’s when it’s shared that it becomes an issue.

      Just like you could record anything with a vcr, you just couldn’t share it with your friends.
