I can give you two examples. Say for example I lived somewhere where I couldn't get HBO. This means I never saw Game of Thrones. I heard about it, I read about and I want to see it, but I was never able to. So then I hear it will be out on DVD. I will likely, at the least, rent it and potentially buy it. But then a friend shows me how to download it for free.

and if you record the episode on pvr you cause the same problem
If you invite people over to watch game of thrones you cause the same problem
If you rent a dvd in a rental store you cause the same problem
if you sell your dvd used on ebay you cause the same problem
