This thread is so full of misinformation, it's hilarious. Nobody's playing those pirated versions online, because Steam AND IWnet are in the way of that. Some people are playing the Single-player, and some will probably just go unplayed.
Either way, I doubt this will effect sales, as most people who would have bought the game do so for multi-player.
I think IW's decision to use Steam was a good one, it will limit how much money they lose to piracy by a significant amount. Their other decisions, however, were stupid and will hurt them financially.
