Nonsense.  Anything streamed off the tape can be buffered and re-distributed 
to multiple destinations.

I think you may be confusing quantity from character here.  A copy is a copy.

I know a man who makes a living pirating video at sub-VHS quality.  Some of 
his stuff is as crude as placing a home videocamera in front of an old TV, 
yet it sells.

What he engages in is piracy, and is criminal.  I don't argue that.  

I do argue that downloading Knoppix via bittorrent is not criminal.
