We really need to appreciate that other people are paying for the 'free' things we enjoy. Sometimes they are donating their time, other times they are donating their money, most of the time, they are paying their taxes.
That would apply just as equally to the pirate sites. But the most logical endgame for piracy is we all get charged a levy on internet access to cover the "loss". And we all know none of that money will go anywhere near even midlist writers, never mind new/upcoming ones.
