While this would fix some of it, I personally don't think it would make a very big dent in the problm. The reason I say that is because many of the people who download just want it for free. They don't care if it is available for them to buy or not, they don't want to pay. If you go on Torrentfreak and you read the comments on any article that talks about a ruling/event taking place that is anti-pirating and you will see dozens, if not hundreds, of people posting there about how they will never pay for anything. They rail against the producers of movies and music and say that the big companies are too greedy and need to brought down and how they are pirates for life. These people don't care if it is available for them to buy, they are just going to take it anyway.
