So the validity of the studies is in question? Let's see what we have here:

Unbiased (as in, not RIAA, MPAA,etc. funded) researchers:

US Government:

Dutch government, they actually noticed the economy profits from piracy:

A bit unrelated to games, but this concerns anime piracy which is still piracy, Japanese government:

To sum it up. You are wrong, I am right. Good day. Your overall point of view on piracy is just fallacious in the face of these studies, and if you wanna argue against these, then you will just end up looking more like a fool.

Great job, now find articles that show how piracy actually helps the PC gaming industry. In case you forgot, this was about PC gaming.

I'm looking a fool? You can't even stay on topic.

really, your both coming off kind of foolish.

Though all known data does back him up, so his foolishness is limited to conduct, while yours is related more towards... well what's known as "common nonsense."
