I voted no.
My main reason is the same as Animeholic. These companies aren't that big and we can at least try to help them a little bit. It's true that the difference may be close to zero because the main problem here is the mentality of people (some just download if they can buy it or not; others download and if they like it, they buy it) but still, this is one of the best ways to help these companies. Even if by a little research we are able to find download links, FAKKU could try to show some support for the localization of Visual Novels by doing this.
If we buy a officially released game, we will be helping and encouraging not only the company that localized the Visual Novel, but also the company that produced it.
Even if fakku doesn't have the links, other sites will. In that aspect, fakku will shrink if this prolongs. Might as well have the links to attract people.
It might "shrink" a little but that's not the point here. Besides, I don't think that this implementation would have that much of an impact here because there are MUCH other things here like manga and visual novels that are not licensed.
The majority of the lurkers should still be around even if this happens.
