Mhmm, that's an anti-piracy PR blurb from an "anti-piracy" service selling site. Not sure it is the most unbiased source... I think it has been demonstrated elsewhere that 1 pirated download does not equate to 1 lost sale.

Where I live (Mexico) I know so many people that have pirated Adobe, Microsoft apps and plenty of games, who there is NO WAY they would have bought the software if they hadn't been able to pirate it.
