Yes but it's already extremely easy to pirate comics. Especially with digital releases already. What incentive would anyone have to pay for a subscription service for comics most people don't want to read anyway? Now if they offered that option at least for their still unreprinted backlog then that's at least some incentive.
This digital problem doesn't exist for manga because most scantalation sites are limited, taken down eventually, or only use shitty fan translations. So unless the official release is bad, people are more incentivized to buy physical. Plus any mistakes that do crop up have a potential of being fixed in reprints. Unlike scans where the group will never fix them.
