No, uploading gets you in
more trouble with the *AA because you're distributing your one illegal copy to anywhere from 10-5000 other people depending on the protocol and how long it's been shared. Saying that downloading is legal but uploading isn't is the same as saying that it's fine for me to steal your laptop while you're taking a piss, but I can't give it to someone else or sell it.

And spare me the taking money out of artists pockets bullshit. Cause I don't want to hear how they had to sell their Bentley for a tricked out Denali.

What about startup bands?
You people are rationalizing breaking the law. At least go with something better, like "Oh, the CDs only have 1 good song on them" or "Music is too expensive". Don't tell me stealing is legal. I admit what I'm doing is wrong. You should, too.
