Cuz I’m broke and Hollywood isn’t. It’s wealth redistribution. /s….? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Because I'm a cheap bastard.
And also because I'm a third worlder and piracy is my only access.
I just like getting my dumb blorbos without having to have a spreadsheet of where to find them scattered over 20 different services
I pirate because I want to watch Last Exile now, not 3 months ago when Hulu had the rights to it, and not some time in the future when they may acquire the rights again
Also it's easier than finding physical copies of 30 year old OVAs
Why not both?
If purchasing doesn't convey ownership, copying cannot be theft.
Underrated comment. Upvote it more
Morality is a great tool for justifying legal enforcement of my desires. All it takes is a good argument connecting the two.
The arguments are getting less good here tho. They're getting very thin and flimsy.
What would happen if we threw away the moral argument?
What if instead of offering a moral argument for why you shouldn't pirate their movies, Disney just said "come at me bro"?
Then I would come. And by God would I die stealing the dumbest shit imaginable just for the sake of it
My friend (an old lady unfamiliar with pirates) bought a dvd the other day. A comedy from 15 years ago.
It had been censored. Offensive dialogue dubbed over. No warning on rhe package.
Yo ho forever.
And the selection is VASTLY superior.
Instead of accessing only what netflix is "offering" today, I have access to EVERYTHING. All the time. Forever. Even obscure weird old stuff.
The entire body of media created by the human race is mine!
Honestly it just kinda feels easier
