No there is new work that has been done that you are reducing to "piracy". As if intellectual and creative processes ever could take place in a vacuum. The only contradiction is that copyright laws as a concept do nothing than stifle innovation and progress. If you do not like how anyone can profit from other people's ideas you should maybe rethink your stance on monetisation schemes in general instead.
