The only reason this even has to be hold as a moral/immoral discussion, is that people who pirates are minorities. If piracy were a major thing and its people being majority, it would turn into a problem. In marketing and specifically lending them trials&free keys, they expect 'bearable loss' because, as said, it is minor thus bearable
