A Copywrite violation occurs whether the item is sold or not.  It is a 
violation, for one explicit instance, for a choir to buy one copy of a
piece of music and photocopy it for the rest of the choir members.  It
is a violation, for which people were fined and jailed in the last year,
to copy a piece of liturature for distribution to a college class with
out the permission of the copywrite owner.

One of the most common violations is the copying of a friend's album onto
tape for your personal use.  The theory is that this deprives the copywrite
owner of a sale that may have occurred if you had not copied it.
