One person sharing files does not make a difference directly.
However, what happens is that one person shares it. Ten people download it, then share it. Ten people download from each of them (so we have 110 people sharing it now), and Ten people download from each of them. Now we have over 1,000 people sharing the original file. A couple of steps down the line, we will have 100,000. A couple of further steps and we could be up to 1 million.
1 person sharing a file will not directly make a difference. A few steps down the line, when thousands of people are sharing the file (and this is how Bit torrent works by default: You share everything you download), companies start going bankrupt and all of a sudden all those singers, songwriters, actors etc are losing money. A lot of money.
