Also, not all youtube stuff is ripped from other movies. Some could be homemade, etc.

You become an accessory when you take someones pirated stuff and give it out. It used to be understood that recording off of tv was ok but now I am not so sure it is anymore. That is where I am foggy. We can make duplicates of our cds etc. for our own purposes but we can't then pass them around. This my understanding, I am willing to be corrected here.
