Some people who would otherwise buy it don’t because they can get it for free.
Negligible amounts of people at worst. This is a non-factor, and ridiculous propaganda spread by giant corporations.
You can’t convince me pirated films don’t affect movie sales at all. It doesn’t make any sense. If it didn’t affect their sales at all (or even helped them as some argue), why would they even care to spread propaganda about it? I don’t give a fuck if Disney or whatever makes less money and I’ll keep pirating everything because it is awesome, but maybe don’t pirate something by random indie developer/director who makes $5 made.

Because they’re fucking stupid and they think it does affect their sales, despite all evidence to the contrary. These companies are not made up of infallible AI superhumans, they’re made up of dumb out-of-touch boomers. They fuck up all the time.
