There’s plenty of pirates that stopped pirating and started paying for steaming apps because the apps made following new music or watching your favorite shows a hell of a lot easier than piracy for a while.
I was a pirate before I used Netflix for this reason, because there was a time when it was more convenient.
That isn’t the case anymore. I now pirate everything again except music (because my family uses YouTube premium and music is included) and games, because gog and steam are great apps and games constantly go on sale.
Streaming companies can’t keep up with the convenience and capabilities of modern piracy apps. The *arr stack is just so damn good.
False. I completely stopped pirating music 15 years ago, when streaming services came along that had 99% of what I wanted. The moment they enshittify and their value proposition deteriorates, I will sail the high seas again.
Pirates always pirate. Free is always less expensive than Netflix.
But convenience is still king.
