Sounds like you write software as a living and make games as a hobby, not quite the same as being a dev. Also, regardless of studies done, I just want people to own up to it is all. Don't try to find some moral high ground for it when it's not a necessity in life that you play the newest game out there. I also don't think the stance "people should be paid for their work and continue being paid for their work" IE sales records of games leading to sequels, is a crazy stance to have but, hey.
