This doesn't mean the LAW is what is important here, it's the fact that the people who dedicate their life (at no small sacrifice) to create the art and entertainment (to which all of you are so addicted) are receiving no compensation - it is stealing from them. From my friends. From me.
Sure, public domain films are legal to copy - but if you are in doubt as to the copyright status on a film then you can be certain that it is protected.
