That genuinely may be so, but "this law i broke shouldn't exist" is not an advisable legal defense.
Also, what you call "rent seeking" others would call "return on investment". I do think there is a grey area here, "fair use" being one example, but i think summarily discounting distributors and publishers wholesale doesn't help your stance.
