Good point about the Market in other countries. However, I was not only referring to cell phones, but all platforms and software in general.
My wild guess that Android software is less pirated is simply because of the installed base. Since there are so many more users of other platforms and devices, Android pirate sites are less appealing and less likely to pop up. (As opposed to iPhone, for example.) This makes tracking of piracy a bit easier, and perhaps enforcement as well.
