I maintain my position on this. Although I “pirate” by using non lawful means to obtain entertainment by p2p downloading I always opt to support the items I deem as worthwhile.
Take this for instance – lets say I had no options as currently and the only way I could get my hands on a gaming title such as (in this case) COD AW and I had a doubt about the quality of the game it would have meant that Activision had ZERO chance of making a sale to me.
Now I can really try it out and in the case of games I really dont enjoy I can delete and move on with my life without feeling done in.
Now should I (again a real world case) think that Far Cry 4 will not live up to the hype it is made out to be but 15 minutes after starting realize I was in error it actually resulted in me purchasing something I had ZERO intention of playing.
Same as movies and series. I have box sets bought after I watched and enjoyed it of various series and docus.
Here is a business idea I will support… Enable me to CHOOSE what I want to see and not what you suppose I find entertaining and I WILL subscribe to something “legal”.
