Yes, that's the definition of a service. Just not sure what your point is about talking about prostitutes as if one was steeling a service when they get raped. Steeling from creatives is rape or something?

The metaphor is both limited and clear and any failure to understand is so absurd as to seem intentional.

Wait, instead of metaphor you meant a literal example? Absurd indeed to compare rape to downloading something illegally.
