It’s a big lie that piracy has caused any drops in sale. I guess those who make such hollow claims, consider the whole planet earth population their potential paid customers.
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.
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.

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