It makes sense for me. The one i’m using is $20 per year. I just think of it as convenience fee. It has netflix features but for all movies and tv shows.
I understand why people do it, but for me it's a principle thing. I'm not going to pay someone for content they stole. Fuck that.
I generally don't have a problem with copyright infringement, but people who make a profit from it are scumbags.
And like I said, I get convenience/availability. I guess paying for stolen goods is one step too far for me. Like, "Dude, pass it around, but it's not yours to sell".
