I more or less believe it's a marketting ploy to explain why shitty games/movies don't sell well. I mean for instance the movie industry, if they were truly loosing billions of dollars in piracy every year, then why are sales up for them? Why are they profitting billions of dollars? Start complaining when you actually lose money. |
The videogame industry doesn't have box office as a revenue stream (they used to have arcades as a source of revenue but that dried up). So, end result is that they whine like crazy about any lost dollar they don't get, presuming that they can get what they want, as opposed to what people will pay.
