This is a very silly argument. There are plenty of other entertainment options that are not the anime in question; no one has a right to experience a specific piece of creative content, just because they feel like it and don't like the distribution model. Lots of entitled downvoters on here; I at least applaud you for engaging in discussion.
Should you be able to attend an event without a ticket, just because that venue has a "monopoly" on that evening's entertainment? You're not reducing the enjoyment of others, nor are you decreasing the artist's revenue.

You're not reducing the enjoyment of others, nor are you decreasing the artist's revenue. This isn't an accurate analogy because the OP has no option to enter the venue at all, even if they want to pay. > no one has a right to experience a specific piece of creative content The whole motive behind copyright is that society is entitled to culture. By granting artists a time-limited monopoly, they can be incentivized to create and release more and more content, which makes society's culture richer and more widely available to everyone. So I'd argue that the status quo OP describes is contrary to the actual objective of copyright itself.
- p0pcult 4y agoVenues sell out. Are you suggesting that if i couldn't get a ticket to a concert i want to see, I am entitled to some kind of compensation?
- EMIRELADERO 4y agoCompensation? No. That wasn't my main argument however. Please read it below in my original response.
