If it were true, why would Louis CK even be doing this? According to you, everyone watching his torrents is going out and buying the hard copies as a way to say thank you. So why is he even trying this new experiment?
People have proven time and time again that they don't mind supporting the artists / content creators they like. Sure some download it for free, they always will. Deal is, it's going to be around no matter what so you either complain about it and do nothing different or complain about it and adjust. Either way complaining had no effect.
