I'll pay for convenience or a good service. When the legal option is more work than piracy that's a problem. The entertainment industry at this point is kind of infamous for how late they are to adapt to changes. It took ages to accept streaming as a viable option, but they finally accepted it and found a way to make it terrible, too.

It's not convenient when I can't find what I want to watch, it's not convenient when the show I am watching is suddenly gone from the streaming library. It's not convenient when only a sequel to a movie is available for viewing.

Steam is a great example of how to make a great service that is actually convenient.
