It's ok if I pirate music as long as I only listen to it once... to "demo" it.

  Are you making the assumption that I'm condoning pirating to demo software? I was purely positing that those people may not have been likely to result in a sale, which may put the numbers in a different light. That said, if the game doesn't provide a demo, and through marketing is tricking people into purchasing that which they would not have willingly bought it if they knew what it was like, then the situation is reversed and the buyer is the victim. Advertising has it's place, and that place is informational. Any time someone buys something they can't, don't or won't use or need, that's a comparative net loss for the economy.
