But piracy is a product of their free market, don't they want their mythical free market to be a free market?

Or maybe that was always just bullshit and they rely on using their money to suppress competition while they deliver a terrible, inferior product.

The whole idea of copyright is a granting a state backed monopoly which is the antithesis of a free market as I understand it.
