Yeah I pirated a lot when I was younger, then things became more easily available and cheaper so I started buying all my games and movies again. And now they're going in a backwards direction and making things sorta expensive again and there are a dozen different subscription services so now I'm back to pirating again.

Same here man. We were up to about $70 per month for streaming services, which was right back to cable TV type of shit. When Netflix pulled the password stunt that pushed us over the edge and we've been real-debrid ever since.
