I dunno how would this even work?
Is it 2 home games and 2 away games against each team?
Will they relegate the weakest teams from each country and promote the league winners of each domestic league?
Or do they say fuck it and it's a league of own.
15 founder clubs plus 5 extra based on invitations, are divided in two competitions of ten each. They'll play home and away games. After that there's a knockout tournament. Top 3 of both competitions qualify for quarter finals, numbers 4 and 5 do play-offs for the remaining spots.

There's no qualification or promotion/relegation; the founder clubs decide who gets invited.

No one cares about Argentina, Portugal or Egypt if Messi, Ronaldo and Salah aren't playing.
The idea here is that the top players do care about playing in their domestic leagues and for their countries. This puts pressure on them to speak up against their own clubs' involvement in the ESL.

That is not correct. When you pay the creator, you make an agreement to not copy the game. You do not make an agreement to never lend out the game. Making a copy is breaking your promise / agreement, deception, and theft. It is immoral and disrespectful.

This is functionally equivalent to cheating on your spouse but then saying "eh they have no way of ever finding out so it's okay"

No it's still immoral even if your spouse never finds out.
You're conflating legality and morality. When I purchase a product the implied agreement is based on legality, not respect. You can buy a product and set it on fire. Entirely disrespectful to the creator but I wouldn't call it immoral.

A romantic relationship is the one based on respect instead of legality. It's not illegal to cheat on your partner, but definitely disrespectfuland immoral.

Let's not pretend these two types of 'agreements' are morally comparable.

Whether or not the creator knows about it has no bearing at all on the morality of the act.
I'd argue it matters A LOT if the argument heavily relies on the rights of the creator.

If the creator has no way of telling the difference between two scenarios (copy or borrowed) and the results in terms of revenue are indistinguishable (he gets paid only once) then it makes no sense to call only one of the scenarios disrespectful to him and therefore immoral. Either both are or neither is.

Then in that case, they didn't buy the copies they sold. They are selling "unauthorized reproductions," which are a form of thievery. Because of copyright law, the only people authorized to make copies of something to then sell or distribute are the ones who own the copyright on that material.
Yes it's against the law. We're discussing morality, I'm entirely uninterested in discussing legality because we all agree on that.

The thing is, there's only one copy involved in that scenario. The instant you make another copy wthout permission from the creator, you are breaching the trust of the agreement and are now behaving immorally.
The question is why? What's so fundamentally morally wrong with making a copy? The end result for the creator is the exact same in all the scenarios: one person paid for it, and someone else enjoyed it without the creator being compensated a second time.

The creator has no way of knowing whether the second person is watching a burned DVD or a borrowed one. From their perspective there's no reason to think one is wrong and the other is fine.

In these examples, somebody actually bought the game/movie involved.
Like I said in my previous post, this is also the case with piracy. The ripper buys the content once, and then shares copies.

Plus, for the most part, loaning or borrowing a game/movie from a friend is impermanent. If you want to own your own copy while your friend still has theirs, you have to buy it for yourself.
There are piracy services that allow the user to stream movies or live tv. The user doesn't become a permanent owner of the content in those cases, but it's still considered piracy.

Plus, the idea of borrowing from a friend implies that it's a physical copy, which isn't the issue. Stealing a physical copy is cut-and-dry theft in every scenario.
The argument was that enjoying the fruits of someones labor without being the one who paid for it was immoral. Whether the copy is physical or digital doesn't really matter in that regard.

Suddenly, you are enjoying the fruits of their labor without playing your expected role in the transaction. That becomes a moral problem because you're still using their product, but you aren't compensating them for their role in creating it.
While this does make sense, the exact same applies when you borrow a game from a friend. Or watch a DVD together that they purchased. Or when you buy a product second hand.

In all of these examples you get to enjoy the fruits of their labor, without the producers being compensated for it. Yet I don't think anyone would argue any of that is immoral. So surely this can't be the sole reason for piracy to be immoral.

When you buy games from good developers, the money speaks for itself and incentivizes publishers (or even the developer itself) to make more games. If 10,000,000 people play the game, but none of them paid for it, then there's a huge fanbase but no incentive to make a sequel because it didn't bring in any revenue.

Paying for the results of a developer's labors helps the developer more than just the initial paycheck they got from working on the game. Plus, depending on the contract, some developers do get a cut of the game's sales going forward.
I agree with this sentiment in the general sense, and I do think this is a valid reason for people not to pirate content. However, we're discussing the morality here. Is depriving a company of potential revenue always immoral or does that only apply to piracy?

Let's say I publicly call for a boycott of a developer for whatever reason. Is that inherently immoral? What if a friend wants to buy their game and I tell him "don't, it sucks"? Both of these cases directly cost the developer's revenue.

No it isn't. It's probably trespassing, maybe breaking and entering depending how they get in. It's not stealing. Also, wear and tear obviously doesn't apply to piracy so I'm not sure why you'd add that to the analogy.
