If there was a paid service that let me stream shit with the same variety and ease as torrentio then I would pay for it in a heartbeat. But to get almost the same variety I would need to buy every streaming service and even if I did that it would be a pain in the ass to manage every streaming service. The media corps did this to themselves.
This isn’t even like a personal opinion or a thought experiment. Pirating was huge, then Netflix popularized streaming and pirating went WAY down, and then the streaming experience went to shit and pirating went back up.
