Strange again, I thought that value was easy setup and that it "actually works"(tm)

sharing with friends isn't actually piracy.

Where did you get that notion?

You can invite friends over to watch a movie with you, you can lend a movie too. Copyright law has fuzzy carve outs for this.

Yeah but not whole libraries. At least not here in Europe. Not sure about US. But here sharing a movie is only allowed if you watch it together at home.
