Piracy does not hurt revenue and, in fact, may actually help it:

I have found and become a big fan of tv shows that I would have never had the chance to see because of piracy, one of my favourite shows 'Corner Gas' never once aired in my home country. Thank you piracy for helping me find good entertainment.
Never thought a single non-canadian would have even heard of Corner Gas lol
I absolutely love it, it's the perfect show in my opinion, I'm so glad I stumbled across it.
I was sold on it by the first episode entirely because of Oscar, he kills me with every line.
Another non-Canadian who found the show by happenstance and think it's great! Also watched the animated seasons when they came out (although not quite the same).
We don't speak about the animated series here
