-Piracy like retail purchases is demand led , a game that does crappy at retail will also get similarly low amount of downloads.
Therfore piracy will only account for a % the games sales and will usualy never be the diference between Profitability or Loss.
-If Piracy downloads have nothing to do with demand then this would indicate that the pirate has no interest in purchasing the game anyway and there is no opporunity loss in this.
-Download doesn't mean the person didn't buy the game .
-Download doesn't mean the person would have bought the game if they didn't download
- One person may download the game two or more times
- The person may not even have the right system specs for the game thus not being able to play it
- Some one who initiated the download and didn't finish it would prolly still be counted as a "download"
