The people who pirate would NOT buy the game in the first place , so piracy is good because in this way they might reconsider buying the original if they like it or to play MP , if they like the game they can say to their buddies "dude this game is fkng cool we gotta buy it"
In the end piracy supports developers.

That's one hell of an argument you got there. Let me go ring the Queen and tell her to not disconnect my 'net.

I would have thought that people pirate so they don't have to buy the material...

Only valid argument why piracy is good:

Some developers see that piracy does always equal a lost sale. If someone has pirated a game and it works fine they arn't going to go out a buy it, for the bigger releases it's not to bad as they make most money on the consoles and can afford to loose a few PC sales.
But it's with the indy and PC exclusive titles that really feel the force, people were pirating World of Goo a game made by a indy group and was selling for as little as £15 on Steam. I didn't buy it but I didn't go a pirate it either as if I like the look of a game then why should the developers loose out on my cash?
