I understand the slogan and why it is used, but I have never had any moral qualms about pirating the intellectual property of a billion-dollar corporation, call me weird.
Basically when it comes to streaming services, what are you paying for? You aren’t getting anything except temporary access that can be revoked at any time. What the slogan is saying is pretty simple in that regard: if we aren’t buying anything but access, then you aren’t stealing when sailing the seas
I completely agree, what I’m saying is that even if I could actually buy it, or when this was possible, I would still not have ethical problems with “sailing the seas” nor do I think anyone should have those problems, I say again, the intellectual property belongs to billion-dollar companies
If they’re making a profit then the product and distribution has been paid for by those with means, all costs have been covered, all employees, producers and suppliers have been paid an adequate and fair compensation for their contribution.
because they use their bargaining power to pay something not even remotely close to what a rational person would consider fair, not even to those who actually produce what they market (I’m talking about musicians, film scriptwriters or software developers) and even more so all employees, producers and suppliers

You’re weird.
I agree with you completely, just complying with your request.

“adequate and fair compensation”, I assume you are joking
If it’s not adequate and fair why is there a profit margin?

Sounds like a problem. Maybe you should fix it.
