How do the real customers lose in the end? I don't pirate, but I don't see how other people pirating has negatively affected me. 1 pirated game doesn't equal one lost sale, because many people probably just wouldn't get the game if they couldn't pirate it.

Ahh yeah it kinda does it does equal a lost sale.

i don't pirate but let's take me for example(i don't buy digital games but no matter),why would i pay 60$ for a game when i can wait for a couple of months and when the pirated version comes i download it beat the game and it's all good.

And when i buy the game i don't even own it and it's full of drm because of those pirates who don't buy the game.

So, do you think the same of people that buy games used? "Why would I pay $60 for a game when I can wait for a couple of months and get the game used?". Also, it's not pirates' fault that you don't own the game, it's the publishers' fault since they're the ones who implemented the DRM.
