In computer games, cheap games from small publishers are, as a percentage of total sales, much more likely to get pirated than $50 games from international publishers.  It's not about the money or the "evilness" of the publisher.  It's about wanting something for free and taking it.

I've actually come to the point where I admire people who say "I pirate, I know it's stealing, but I do it anyway."  Probably because everyone I know pirates (except for me), but most of them develop this self-righteous attitude where not only is it not (lol double negative) immoral to pirate, it's actually the right thing to do.  "I'm doing it for the artist, I'm doing it to get back at the man", etc.
