I genuinely prefer to pay for content.

  Me too, until it's a huge hassle and extremely expensive. I was happy to pay for Netflix, until a bunch of other corporations got involved and made streaming into exactly the problem that streaming fixed... We're back to cable again.

    How so? It’s still significantly better than cable because there is no contract and you are not paying for services you don’t want to use.

      It's not about the money. It's about convenience. If I can't rely on the media being available where I'm looking for it it gets annoying. I can't even rely on it still being there the next time I go looking for it in the same place. I see people schedule what shows they watch during which subscription, when to subscribe where and when to unsubscribe etc. If it's more complicated to pay for it than not I'll stop doing it.

  Idea: make content creators share their Bitcoin addresses and tell what "fee" they expect for each download of a torrent (akin to "views").
