If "piracy" is too strong of a word "sharing" is too weak of a word. Clearly we must differentiate between legal sharing and non-legal. Piring? (it also sounds like peering which is very much in the spirit of p2p.)
To me it hasn't been proven yet how the argument for p2p copyright laws is any different than a hypothetical argument for let's say drinking, should we make drinking illegal because some people end up harming others because of it and hence any positive/neutral experience derived from it denied to us and overshadowed in the darkness of legality.
