Raubmord is what we call a murder resulting from a busted/discovered robbery, essentially just escalating the consequences of the robbery further.

What I think OP is getting at are the absolutely ridiculous penalties you get for "stealing" something that physically doesn't exist in a way we can grasp and cannot be reported mssing once "stolen". I'd probably guess you'd be easier off actually stealing a movie from a store selling blurays than downloading it and getting caught so the renaming OP did fits perfectly imo
