Not always true.

Some pirates will actually buy products that they use often or think is worth the price.
They will also tell their friends about the product.

Most people that don't pirate will purchase the product even if there is a pirated version available.

Piracy will always exist.

Overall, piracy has more of a positive effect on sales than negative.
More people knowing about your product. More people using your product.

If you're worried about piracy affecting your sales, then your product probably sucks.
