Well, that's how it tends to be in most places.
You don't get caught for downloading; you get caught for uploading.Using a similar logic to distribution via DVDs. Only the seller gets into trouble. The buyer does not.

The buyers/downloaders don't get caught is just because there are too many of them and going after the distributor is an easy target.

Eh. Makes sense from the perspective of protecting profits, I guess, because the actual thing which bothers them is the volume of lost potential customers....

Is it not also because it was easier to feign ignorance for the time the laws were passed?

And the copyright owners have no problem with them profiting from derived works that were made using pirated content?

Not the case, necessarily.
In Portugal, for example, it's legal to download pirated content. It's not a matter of not pursuing it because it's hard or being difficult to catch or distributors are an easier target, it's just that, legally, you're not doing anything wrong.

In Canada it’s legal to download and watch content for personal use, so it’s when it’s shared that it becomes an issue.
Just like you could record anything with a vcr, you just couldn’t share it with your friends.
