Could you please explain to me how this software (and silent installs are illegal to include in most countries) differentiates between pirates and people using things personally?

It's less how dare they try and stop people from downloading (Incidentally, this albums already up on Kazaa and soulseek, so they did a shit job), and more how dare they use methods potentially harmful to computers of legitimate users?
You can assume if you like. In reality, I don't care. Just found funny how someone talked about illegal stances when downloading is hardly legal and we all do it.
