If you're so sure that I've taken "something that does not belong to
you", why don't you state what that "something" is?

The principal of copying off-air was legalized a long time ago. Does
off-air copying differ from rental copying in some fundamental way?

What do you mean by "wrong", i.e. morally wrong or illegal? If the
later, don't use DMCA arguments as if they were universal. I don't live
in the USA. In my country I can copy legally as long as it is for my
personal use.
