      absolutely unfuckingbelievable. the entire entertainment industry just churns people through exploitative systems and phenomenally rich bastards and spits their husks out at the end, I would be amazed if piracy was affecting the outcomes of artists and musicians by even 1%. pretending that this is damaging the EU economy is also very funny, the Europeans are having zero troubles damaging their own economies by cutting off from China (read: acting as if they're decoupling from China and then buying the exact same Chinese products through third countries at additional cost)

    I'll never stop pirating. I even pirate the stuff I own just because it's more convinient.

    For me honestly it's mostly the top two, though nothing will actually stop me pirating stuff to at least find out if I like it first. It's just that everything is so expensive and sometimes hard to get hold of that I may as well keep the pirated one
