The EU study does not say what the pro-piracy crowd wants it to say.
The study only looks out the count of games and not the dollar amount spent. A non-pirate who buys a $60 game and all the DLC and microtransactions is counted the same as a pirate who buys one $0.99 steam sale game. It does say that sales for blockbuster movies are heavily impacted by piracy.
