No, no, NO. I am tired of people comparing digital distribution to retail in "piracy is fine" arguments. There are literally infinite available copies of a DD game. Attempting to use the "it doesn't diminish their stock" argument is therefore absolutely meaningless.

Nobody is going to buy that same packet of Cheetos you nicked from Tesco. And nobody is going to buy that same copy of Modern Warfare you pirated. That doesn't necessarily mean a lost sale overall, it just means you can't compare digital thieves favourably to a physical thief.

They are never going to run out of digital copies. Saying that you haven't deprived anyone of a copy is always going to be true, whether you bought it or pirated it. It's just... it's just a non-argument.
