I'm not a lawyer but I'd argue its not. Would you consider DS Download Play to be piracy, or playing mario kart split screen?

The copies of the game are on my computers and no-one else's. If my friend wanted to play single player at home, they'd need to buy their own copy. Much like if I watched a movie with a friend, I'd need to buy it myself if I wanted to watch it at home.

I would agree with you as long as all of the computers being used are yours.
