The difference being that money is finite and digital media isn’t.
Money isn’t finite either. States and national banks create an artificial scarcity for it because (non-digital) goods and services you can buy with it are finite.
But since you can create unlimited copies from digital data, the intrinsic value of a copy is 0, therefore piracy isn’t stealing.
Abundant and infinite mean two different things though. Money is abundant, not infinite. If you had unlimited money, as you said, it’s intrinsic value would be zero
