I don't think I am alone when I say that I don't believe my piracy is causing any loss of revenue for anyone. I say this because I only download media that I would normally never buy or watch anyway. If I download music and like it, I do go buy the CD. The pirated things you'll find on my computer or in my CD collection are either things I wouldn't pay money for or backups of things I already.
This said, I understand it's still a copyright violation and against the law. Also, my actions promote more piracy so I can be causing loss of revenue that way, but that seems a bit indirect. In the end, it's just how I justify it to myself.
