Reducing the Piracy Rate Does Not Necessarily Create Jobs

,----[ Quote ]
| The SMH ran an uncritical software piracy propaganda piece on 21 October
| (link will likely become unusable in a short time).  The piece cites IDC on
| Australia having a piracy rate of 28%.  One of the spokespersons
| quoted “claimed” that a 10% drop in the piracy rate over the next four years
| would “generate an additional 3929 Australian jobs in the IT channel” (btw
| the number (3929) demonstrates astounding precision from such an inexact
| science).  Can that be right?  Must a reduction in the piracy rate result in
| higher jobs for the IT sector?
