If you're referring to TX law, no- the law only addresses real and tangible property.
Morally it's an interesting question. Technically you're taking "something" without paying for it, but the actual losses to the rightful owner are only theoretical- you wouldn't necessarily have purchased a song or service that you took for free, you may have just done without, and the net revenue to the owner would be exactly the same. So i would say no.
