And then you wrote that, which I find really stupid to call someone a thief because he gets an illegal copy, compared to you who buy it. It's not stealing even using this viewpoint.
It's only copyright infringement. Not stealing.

I said technically it's breaking the law however you view it, which in this case is considered stealing, which is also theft. I don't consider that person 'a thief', but that's different from the technicality of it.
I'm not sure how exactly the law's worded in this regard so I can't really argue technically.
We just have different values on whether the action is wrong in practice or not. Nothing left to debate really.
