You can rationalize pirating all you want, but at the end of the day it is theft. Even if as you say pirating has no impact on sales, it is still theft.
Theft is a crime in most countries and punishable by law.
Any company which has had their content stolen has every legal right to do whatever it is in their power to stop theft of their products.
They are doing so now and the large cases against piracy are mounting week by week.
If a company like Warner Brothers thinks they can net a DIME after all is said and done, they will and are going to pursue every possible means to get said dime, and they WILL get said dime.
This is inevitable like the seasons, and while piracy will never be totally crushed, it will be hobbled to the point of being just another curiosity.
