This is what's called cherry picking a quote. Neil Gaiman may believe that piracy helps sales- many well known authors disagree. Certainly Mr. Gaiman 's publisher disagrees-and it is they, not Mr. Gaiman, who would have detailed knowledge of his sales figures
In any case, both of these authors have a perfect right to give away their works if they want- that's why its called COPYRIGHT . It doesn't mean that there is any sanction for pirating any other author's work.
