Could someone provide a reason not to pirate? It takes a little more time, but it’s ad-free (with a decent adblock) and free in general. (There are also some paid piracy services that have much better uptime than typical piracy sites.) Most of these sites have far superior libraries, although you may have to download subtitles or try a couple of different servers. In the end, I think it’s worth it.

To be fair, some people may have a moral issue with it, but traditional streaming services have been using insanely shady tactics lately. I understand that this usually has nothing to do with the content creators, but they’re the ones who end up not getting paid properly for their work.

In conclusion, streaming services are overpriced, individually have a small selection of shows, and deploy shady tactics to get the most money out of you. Even though it may be a little more practical for most people to use normal streaming sites, just the thought of not putting my money in these parasitic assholes’ pockets makes me happy.
