Stealing a tuba is only different from photocopying a part in the scale of the crime. (pun intended) Unless of course the photocopying is for the use of the person who owns the original and both parts will never be simultaneously used.

My concern is the logic of the original post, quote:

"I grew up in a small town and didn't have much money. I am not ashamed to say I copied everything I could get my hands on in order to play it on my horn."

Using this logic it's OK to steal food from a supermarket if you don't have the money. Or perhaps you want a better car than you can afford, just go out and steal it. It's NOT ok to steal something just because you don't have much money and you want that thing.
