Right now DRM is one of those things that actually provokes me into pirating the game. (Steam is one of those DRM systems.)

That's a poor justification for piracy.

"I don't like the way they package their game so I will illegally download their game then play and enjoy it, all without paying."

I'm not trying to justify piracy; I'm just explaining one reason I have. If the game has DRM, I almost certainly won't pay for it but DRM will not stop me from playing either if the game interests me enough. Well, unless they make pirating too hard. And as I said, in general I will support good games (and no, I don't usually complete bad games and then say I didn't like it and thus won't buy it; instead, I just don't complete it and then say I didn't like it).

And, piracy won't hurt anyone if the pirate wouldn't have bought the game anyway. And please do notice the 'if' I put there, it's very essential.
