Not to excuse piracy; but really, just what did this company lose?

Sorry, I don't agree with that generalization. It smacks of passive aggressive rationalization. Certainly it's true for some, but it's also true that people steal stuff they want more than they steal stuff that they don't care about, and the only 'evidence' that seems to make people say it's a general truth is that piracy apologists repeat it so frequently.
