Why do you hate piracy?

helenslunch,

Based on what?

I pirate because I’m not paying for a profitable product that I could otherwise get for free.

Right!? It’s not like it cost money to create that work! Let all the schmucks pay for it!

LOL profit is the motive of literally every business on the planet. You don’t even need “basic economics” to understand that.

As James Downey once said: “What you’ve just said is one of the most insanely idiotic things I have ever heard. At no point in your rambling, incoherent response were you even close to anything that could be considered a rational thought. Everyone in this sub is now dumber for having listened to it. I award you no points, and may God have mercy on your soul.”

Yes, once again, I’m very aware of basic economics. What is your point? Is it your hope that they will stop producing media for you to watch?

My point is that they will make less profit if they are forced to.

Yeah, you said that already. I’m still not understanding what that has to do with this discussion.

People just need to have higher standards, which you are proving they don’t.

LOL what? Please do elaborate

You are arguing that if they make less profit, then they won’t make media at all which isn’t true.

Buddy, you’re the one that said “or they make nothing at all” , not me.

You really should study basic economics.

For the third time, none of this has anything to do with economics, basic or otherwise.

It’s sad watching you laugh and dismiss facts because they describe how you’re being taken advantage of.

It’s sad watching you struggle with the difference between not paying for something and choosing to steal it. It’s sad watching you poorly try to justify crimes because, in your opinion, it’s too expensive. I’m not being taken advantage of. I pay what I think the service is worth, and when it fails to meet that value proposition, I simply don’t watch it

Typically, personally, I will subscribe to a service for a month or 2 at a time because by that time I have consumed everything interesting that it has to offer.
