Exactly if piracy didn't exist a lot of resources on the internet would just be inaccessible for a lot of people , especially those in third world countries. You think people in third world countries are going to pay 70$(a considereable part of their monthly income) to play the new mario game. They have important stuff they could spend that money on like food or health care.

Just speaking personally, I still buy what I would buy without piracy as an option. Piracy just gives me more options.

The whole concept of getting things without paying for them being equivalent to losing a sale is stupid. I remember reading a while back that a man stole 800,000 worth of iPhones. But the thing is Apple didn't lose 800,000 in sales. They lost whatever it cost to manufacture those iPhones.
