What's debatable is if a pirated download translates into a lost sale. Would the downloader have actually bought a real copy, ever?

So by that logic, someone has my lost $1,000,000 since that is an amount I might have had if some other factor hadn't entered the equation. Where is that dirty thief?
Amazon might have lost the "opportunity" of a sell, but didn't didn't lose the sell since they never had it. They just didn't "make" a sell.
