The main benefit of sailing the high seas when I was younger was simply having access to things I couldn’t afford that helped make me more cultured. Now the main benefit is so I don’t financially contribute to shitstain corporations.
Building a cheap NAS with shucked drives running Plex on unraid was the best decision ever. I won’t lie it’s not cheaper than just paying for 1-2 subscriptions and I have spent time managing it but having agency over the content available is so nice and if I don’t have disposable income for a time I can just not add new drives
Better quality, don’t need 7 subscriptions to access all content, and don’t have to worry about things getting shelved. It’s funny because Netflix in like 2014 is why I stopped pirating but it was Netflix in 2019 that made me start pirating again. Spotify is getting real close to making me pirate music again too
Me too. And no Netflix, Amazon Prime, Disney+, HBO, … just good old Torrent.
