Ah but the whole argument against internet piracy is that it is costing creators so much money in lost sales etc.

So even a small time rights holder who is losing sales (right? Right? Because that is what this is all about right?) should be happy to pay 100USD or whatever to ensure that they get all those thousands and thousands of lost sales that supposedly they lose from pirates.

Would I pay $10,000 to get a prospective $20,000 of my income secured? Yeah, duh, but I'm sure as hell not going to be happy about it.

How did the $100 turn into #10,000?
