Well, my friend, he’s kinda poor he can’t afford some books and some streaming services, so he pirates. He pirate books, audiobook and videos and other stuff. Sometimes he buys books he likes a lot out of loyalty to the author (yeah, I don’t understand it either), he likes to read physical books, but yeah, if he hates the author or just wants to skim through it, he will download the book.
He usually doesn’t like to pirate from small companies or professors who are trying to make a living by selling books, but from millionaires & plenty of mega corps which already have loads of money, he feels like it’s the right move to pirate
Also, have you ever noticed that you have felt that the value of a product has decreased just because you didn’t pay for it, thus you are less interested to read it? i.e., had you paid for the book, you would have more likely read that book.
He says he will buy stuff when his time is more valuable than money, let’s all hope that day is soon.
What are your piracy habits?
I pirate almost all american media, movies, tv shows, games, etc because often there’s no legal way to get it in my country until months after release, if at all. Which is bullshit considering it’s japan, not some backwater 3rd world hell hole, so you’d think there’d be more options, but if it’s not on Netflix or Disney+, you’re shit outta luck.
I am offended, how will I ever sleep :')
very sorry, but really, how else should I refer to Iowa and Nebraska? :P
There’s a movie that was released almost a decade ago and it’s still not available in my country. There’s no reason for me not to pirate it
