Their growth is in spite of piracy, not because of it. People do not mind buying things if you treat them right. They sell more because they have a reputation of not being assholes, pricing things correctly and making the user experience enjoyable. You were talking about shooting better porn in your last response to the user experience, it has nothing to do with that. They sell games that other people wrote, good and bad. They sell more than anyone in the market *of the same exact stuff* because they aren't stupid. No, they don't sell anything for phones. Steam is a delivery platform for computer games and the owner is a billionaire even though everything he sells can easily be pirated.
As for you "it's happening comment", did you know SOPA was shelved indefinitely?
