Yeah, well I have done similar thing. I bought a games that I pirated in the past. I am not saying piracy is great everyone should be doing it. My argument is: I am sometimes lazy and tired after a long day. I want to watch a movie i heard was good. I can spend 15 mins trying to figure out where to watch it or I can pirate it after it doesnt come up in netflix search. but i am not going to pay for 10 subscriptions just soo I can occasionally watch a show.

Almost any movie you care about will be available on iTunes and/or Amazon Video to rent or buy. Do you check those too or is that too much work? Ultimately, your attitude comes off as entitled. If everything you w Any to consume isn’t available as part of one convince the subscription you rather pirate it. That devalues creation. It’s unreasonable to expect all TV and movies ever created to be available for $20/month.

    > Do you check those too or is that too much work? Who the fuck do you think you are to talk down to me like that? I. Do. Not. Care. If bezos get my $20 or not. How hard is it to understand. > That devalues creation. That is a theoretical guess at best. Game of thrones was the most pirated show ever. Last time I checked they made enough $ to conclude the show. All the big player carved out streaming market and locked it all up via exclusives. They do not compete on quality of experience, UI and feature. They only care about locking in exclusivity to shows. So maybe you get of your high horse and and stop blaming me for not playing corporate FOMO games.
