Because few people actually spend much money on copyrighted stuff they could pirate instead these days, so it's just assumed that anyone trying to do efficient charity already has more money than if they had paid for all the copyright media they've consumed?
Efficient charity folks are really serious about morality though and generally well off. They may have compartmentalized deontological beliefs to buy media material you consume. I bet they are more likely to pay for copyrighted works than the average person.
And if you are going out to the movies or buying popular books off Amazon you should be reminded to pirate more.
