Piracy drives innovation and better ways of delivering content to customers.
I want to pay a fair price to watch a single episode of something once, at my convenience. I do not want to buy an overpriced DVD boxed set that I will watch one episode from and then have it taking up space on my shelves, knowing I'll never use it but struggling to throw it away because I paid so much for it.
It is now possible for me to pay a reasonable price online to watch a single episode of something, so I do. I get what I want, the vendor gets some money where before they would have got nothing from me. Everyone wins.
I honestly believe that if the studios had things exactly their way, I'd have to pay a fortune for something I didn't really want. They've been forced into this by having to compete with piracy.
