That's really the only time it's ethical to pirate. The rest is just stealing.
How could you steal something you don’t even ever own you just buy a license to play it essentially. Either way piracy is not theft in my eyes it is called piracy for a reason. You cannot claim a pirated copy of a piece of software is a lost sale.
Stealing implies you are taking something from someone, not making a copy of it.
