The problem is that people say they know it's a crime to steal software. They then go ahead and do it anyway. I suspect the difference is that if nobody knows, they can get away with it too often. It does not take much moral fiber to stand up and say "henceforth I shall not pirate software" yet few will do that. It's like driving - there are one-way streets and in the dark when nobody's around is it wrong to drive the wrong way?
Essentially, like photocopying sheet music, books, maps etc this part of law is much more dependent on people being able to police themselves; dependent upon their sense of fair play. Sadly - as we too often see in sporting competitions, the players aren't universally all that sporting.
I have no problem reporting thieves.
