    I’m pretty sure that, if you take any one medium, if every single person who downloaded a pirated copy had to instead acquire it legally:

    • a non-zero amount would’ve not bothered;
    • a significant portion would’ve bought it on sale;
    • a significant portion would’ve bought it from a reseller.

    Antipiracy arguments have always been fraught with erroneous speculation.
