    Piracy is an accessibility and quality control problem, not a cost one. I pirate pretty much everything but still purchase physical releases so I can support content creators. Of course most Netflix originals never get physical releases so f*ck em.

      In my case is a cost one for sure, I just cant afford to pay for every single streaming platform, I pay for spotify no problem, all my music is in there.

      That depends on who you ask, lol.

      You’re just parroting Gabe Newell as though what he said is gospel.

      He’s a great man with a lot of good things to say, but this simply isn’t true.

      If you’re paying for something you can get for free while the business selling it to you is making egregious profit, you may be a sucker.
