The copyright owner, the official publisher, and the official distributor usually stated that it's illegal if the owner of the officially published and distributed copy to make a copy of the officially published and distributed copy, unless there's a given permission by the copyright owner or the official publisher or the official distributor.
As for sharing.
A sharing is not illegal, IF the officially published and distributed copy is shared for personal use.
However renting, public viewing, and so on are usually considered illegal if there's no given permission by the copyright owner, the official publisher and the official distributor.
As for file sharing.
File sharing is file copying, see above in regard of copying.
