Comment Piracy = lost sales is wrong (Score 1) 88
The myth perpetuated by Hollywood that every pirate download means a lost sale is BS. How many of the people who pirated the new Ghostbusters (for example) would have (had piracy not been an option) gone to the cinema to see it? (and therefore do in fact represent lost revenue for the movie studios)
How many of them pirated it, liked it and then went to see it in a cinema after that?
