I remember at least one indie dev saying that they would prefer you pirate the game instead of using key resellers as they tend to cost the devs lots of time and money dealing with credit card fraud.
If I am buying grey market, I don't give two fucks about what the dev thinks.
If i respected their capitalist operation I would buy the code from gamestop.
But yes, you are making a valid point. If you respect the dev, pay them!
Why would you spend money at all if the dev doesn't get anything?
Steam has a good service.
