Pirates is wrongly re appropriated term, but it certainly fits better to a company selling something belong to someone else without an agreement and keeping all the money than say someone downloading an audio track to preview it before buying if it's good enough (and available enough at a reasonable price).

Anyways there's no mention of piracy in the original statement. It was not intended publicity, it's not as if they made a press release or something, it's just the answer to a question asked to the guy on a website that got picked up.

These depicts a whole different situation than the one you seem to have grasped from the kotaku sensationalism.
