It's a fair point that making everything available through these services may help some, but a lot companies do this already, and their products still get pirated. However, I do think that the business model of subscription services probably is the most viable solution to this problem.
We have to understand though, that it's difficult for a company who is having their product stolen thousands of times a day to not want to penalize someone for this. They will eventually have to find better ways of dealing with this, but let's just not forget that they aren't really the problem here, and that they didn't create the situation. New internet morality is just another way of justifying faulty ethics, and is not a reasonable excuse.
