and if middle class ikea-buying vauxhall-driving mock-tudor-bungalow-in-the-home-counties-living white boys want to steal from the networks (or the worthy "creative industries", sorry), then I'll support them too.

People don't want to pay for their shit, up to them.
Just don't be moaning when the only people making anything creative are on youtube doing it for free or fast made copy and past bollocks spaffed out of hollywood.
Musics already gone to shit, films next.
