They blame piracy anyway, rather than a) cruddy products or b) unreachable prices.
But no, they don't see the people who scour bookstores, pick up a book, look at the price (especially the "Canadian price") and just walk away. Or who thumb through the first few chapters and think, nah, not for me.
They go for numbers they can point at, like the number of seeders for their title on some stupid site.
