A new survey from Norway reveals that 50% of young people under 30 believe that pirating content is an acceptable way to save money. The survey, conducted by Ipsos, highlights that the high cost of streaming services is a key driver behind this attitude. Links between piracy and organized crime or malware, appear to be of less concern.

Yep, roughly $400 a week.

I run lean, dude. You don't want my life.

If it's about the hobby, the low end is what an old laptop and a crap hard drive? Cycle out new releases as they come and go.

I could set someone up with Jellyfin and a full arr suite for $50.
