![]() ![]() If piracy is defined as copying media available on the internet to local storage (copying ephemerally via streaming or permanently via downloading / torrenting) then I will never stop. So, I also use that as a reason for me pirating. While eBooks are usually cheaper than print, there are a few cases where they’re still too expensive for me. I have an Kobo eReader & I can use a font on that called OpenDyslexic that helps me be able to read more books than I would otherwise. Another personal example is that my disabilities mean I struggle to read print books. :lĮdit: Plus, a lot of media is either delayed or not available. I don’t wanna risk catching COVID just to buy an eShop card. When I’m slightly less broke, I do pay for music etc, but I usually pirate it.Īlso, in my case of being a 3DS owner in the PAL region & living in an area w a lot of COVID cases, I legit can’t use Nintendo’s eShop because they’ve disabled the ability to use credit/debit cards. I’d have to start earning a lot more money to stop me pirating. I’m broke as fuck & the only streaming service I can afford is Spotify, since I have a university student discount & it’s literally half the price per month. I should be able to just to buy it once, and then be able to use it forever.I shouldn't have to subscribe to dozen of streaming services, just to be able to consume everything I want.Just waiting for the Epic launcher to do its thing sometimes takes forever. However, I ended up going back to my pirated copy. I should be able to launch it, without needing to go through some launcher and shit. I shouldn't be barred from using the stuff just because of some licensing error on your end. But please, really make sure that shit is reliable. A one-time online validation/activation is fine, but requiring a constant internet connection is asking too much.Especially when I'm an airplane or place without an internet connection. I should be able to play that shit offline. If a game has a single player mode, then it shouldn't require "always-on" connection.Then one day, I wanted to listen to that particular song, but it's not there anymore, because some label company pulled it out. ![]()
