Yup.

I basically don’t pirate music because streaming is convenient.

I generally don’t pirate games because steam and GOG is convenient. (Sometimes if I’m not sure ill enjoy it I’ll pirate as a no limit trail then buy or drop).

I generally have to with movies and shows. Even though I have access to several streaming platforms though stuff like T-Mobile, AT&T, etc. it’s too annoying to jump around a bunch of apps and the quality is bad compared to the UHD rips of stuff

I used netflix until the majority of my searches didnt show a result. and then went back to pirating.

using jellyfin+jellyseer and radarr/sonarr make it almost as convenient
