I’ll go straight to the point:
- Piracy is useful to bypass regional frontiers and access to censored content
- Piracy is helpful to watch content without supporting it if you consider it not worth of it
- Piracy might be helpful for content preservation and survival
- Piracy is useful to ACTUALLY evaluate whether to spend money on some digital content or not
- Piracy is sometimes the only way to actually own DRM-protected content
This is true.
Piracy exists as a functional alternative to corporate distribution. We are it’s competitors and they should be required to innovate around making content easy to access.
When Digital Content is impractical to access; it is over-engineered and it deserves to rot on the vine
