The "incrementally even more convenient than piracy" for Spotify (and also iTunes Rentals on Apple TV) has really surprised me.
I used to use oink/what.cd to download all my music, but now that I use Spotify I never stray from it. A friend emailed me J.Coles newest album in MP3 but I opted to just wait until it was on Spotify for the sake of simplicity and accessibility.
Similarly with movies, whereas I would once always simply torrent them, sitting in front of my TV and just renting them for $4 feels so much cheaper than battling an advertising laced torrent site and figuring out how to stream it from laptop to TV.
Pirating stuff was much easier than buying CDs or DVDs, but purchasing stuff online has became even easier than piracy.
