We're where we are basically because people are happy with it. They are happy not owning a movie, a record, a book. People don't get it. They ones that we do are the minority. And is not that I'm against streaming. Streaming is ok, but all providers should offer the option to have at least a legit digital copy for a reasonable price to own. And by own I mean to have a non DRM protected file of any kind. A simple media file that can be truly owned and reproduced wherever I want. I have absolutely no issues at all paying to own something. Until then I will absolutely not pay a damn penny to these fuckers.

1h streaming is 0.5g of carbon. Take that by 6h per day x 365. = 1095g per year per person. Lets assume 2 billion people stream. Thats 2.000.000.000 * 1095 = 2.190.000.000.000 Thats 2.190.000 tons of unnecessary carbondioxide. Piracy is one time, piracy is green, save the planet.

  > Take that by 6h per day x 365 You'll need to provide credible sources to support that claim. That assertion seems highly unrealistic.

  What's the carbon cost of what those people would be doing if not "streaming"?
