1. Pirates generate a good deal of cash.
2. Large companies love cash and have plenty of power switches available.
3. Ergo: pirates still prosper only because they have an agreement with MS, RIAA, etc, who wisely decide to gain less rather than gain nothing by selling their stuff to people who don't buy at regular prices.
Nothing PR-ish - just a subordinates' loyalty check: do they really push THAT little 'black' Windows copies in the street as they send percentage for?
