I don't know. I like the clarity of your view, but the word theft has implicit the idea that you having it makes someone else not have it.

Theft is wrong even by poor people, because what you steal might reduce availability to other poor people. But piracy is "theft lite", in the sense that when people without disposable income do it, nobody loses anything. Maybe the creator will even gain a little free notoriety.
