Isn't that like $25k to get started? Maybe they figure (correctly or not) that people spending that much aren't pirates. I wouldn't be surprised if the movies are watermarked as well.
- bcook 11y agoOne thing that has surprised me on HN is that even the wealthy pirate, but perhaps not for financial reasons.

For me, piracy has never been as convenient as clicking a button on iTunes. Everyone likes to save money though... :)
