It doesn't. Those people are not a loss- they would not have bought even if piracy was impossible/unavailable, they would just do without. Companies claiming they have to raise prices to compensate for people who won't buy their crap is a lie, and you are a fool to believe it.
"they would not have bought even if piracy was impossible"

Or, you know, find something else...
That they couldn't pirate
