The original creator/owner is at a loss when data is copied.

No, they're not. Not earning more is not the same as losing what you already have.

Yes yes the argument is made that the pirate would not have bought the copy anyways,

Yet studies have shown the opposite happens.

content available on the internet decreases the desire for people to obtain paid copies

Does your granny know what a torrent is?

not to pay for the data, which is not what the ~~creator~~distributor wanted in creating it.
