They absolutely are special privileges. If I copy a book or a program, then I am not depriving anyone of their property; I am simply creating more property. However, a copyright law prevents me from doing so and thus infringes upon my own property rights.

Ideas are not property.

What property rights of yours are being infringed? You are seriously claiming to have the right to copy something that doesn't belong to you in the first place, and that it's somehow OK to do since you can make an exact duplicate without depriving someone else of the use of their copy?

Seriously?
