That's not an opinion. That's a fact.

So? That is nothing new. No matter how reasonable you set prices, there will always be those looking on the 'net to get their entitled free copy of the book. That predates ebooks for sale, that even predates the internet itself. Before the internet there was illegal electronic books on BBSs.
No matter how low, you will never get rid of piracy. If the higher prices drive you yourself into piracy, that is your choice and your choice alone. You will also then deal with any consequences and risks that result from that choice.
Since it is inevitable that piracy occurs, selling ebooks unreasonably low will hurt as well.
