Used games are sold in retailers and help subsidise the stores that sell legitimate games and help provide employment for a lot of people in the legitimate economy. Piracy does not.

Plus as you say, 1 copy resold is just 1 copy being resold. 1 copy thats pirated can be turned into millions of copies as is essentially illegal distribution of the software.

Also one is legal the other is not.

Not comparable at all.


That's an invalid arguement as I'd dare to wager that 99.9% of those that host the client's seeds on bittorrent/pirate bay have not and will not spend a single cent on it.

They will somehow have sources or ways and means to get the file to host the seed.
