‘My whole library is wiped out’: what it means to own movies and TV in the age of streaming services - Lemmy.World

If buying isn’t owning, then pirating isn’t stealing.

Fair winds and following seas to you fellow sailors, arrrrr

I can understand piracy when they take away something you’ve already bought, but I’d not want to do it for something I haven’t bought yet.

I wanna be able to support people creating what I like.

I have bought some games after pirating them - because I loved them. Still kept the pirated copies for the sake of ownership though.
