which of the following best completes the passage below?

The computer industry's estimate that it loses millions of dollars when users illegally copy programs without paying for them is greatly exaggerated.Most of the liiegal copying is done by people with no serious interst in the programs.Thus,the loss to the industry is quite small,because____________________________

(A)many users who illegally copy programs never find any use for them

(B)most people who illegally copy programs would not purchase them even if purchasing them were the only way to obtain them(??????问题来了)

(C)even if the computer industry received all the revenue it claims to be losing,it would still be experiencing financial difficulties

(D)the total market value of all illegal copies is low in comparison to the total revenue of the computer industry

(E)the number of programs that are frequently copied illegally is low in comparison to the number of programs available for sale

答案是B.但是，为什么非要买他们呢？ 直接非法copy了不能使用么？？ 想不明白了。

我选的是D,后来看了答案觉得的确不关total market value的事，但是跟B有什么关系？？？？实在想不通。。。。

公司要想赢利必须确定目标客户群吧，这个目标客户群就是可能要买这个公司东西的人。
B的意思就是说这些使用盗版软件的人压根都不是目标客户群，所以他们和公司的利益是不相关的。
就比如说，兰蔻压根不用管我姥姥是不是用的她们的正品产品，因为我姥姥就压根不是兰蔻的目标客户。
我也是理解了很久.

 B)most people who illegally copy programs would not purchase them even if purchasing them were the only way to obtain them(??????问题来了)

大多数非法拷贝软件的人，即使购买是唯一获得软件的途径，也不会购买软件。

这个题是问哪一个选项接上文最合适。上文说，计算机行业说因为用户非法COPY软件而损失上百万美元夸张。大多数非法COPY软件的人，都是对于软件兴趣不大的人。。。

然后接下去，B最合适。

就是说。。。这东西本来就不该是他们的， 想赚也赚不到。 那这公司的claim说他们的

loss(本来能赚到的钱)也就不成立了。
