When I was younger (< 25) I would pirate loads - music, films, tv shows, games etc. The main driver was that I was poor and wouldn't have paid for them anyway, but also it was convenience , streaming services weren't around yet so it was the only way to consume digital products.
Now that I'm older and have a decent salary, I don't do it anymore. I'm happy to pay for Spotify and have a really easy experience, or use Amazon or Netflix. I don't play PC games anymore either. The only act of piracy I do now will be the very odd occasion where I watch to watch a full F1 race that I missed, but the service that I pay for might not have uploaded the race for up to 24 hours later. I don't want to wait because I run the risk of coming across spoilers and I'm eager to watch what happened, and seeing as I'm already paying for the service to watch the race I don't see what the issue is by seeing it a bit earlier.
Honestly fair play to anyone that does this. I think people who create good quality content should be enumerated for their work.
I think if there was a system where people were honest and paid the price of a product they enjoyed after consuming it, then we'd see a totally different landscape - businesses wouldn't look into sales metrics and say "this was a great success!" when in fact it was just really well hyped which generated a lot of sales, but was in fact totally shit. They could instead see "it was downloaded x times, but only y% actually thought it was worth paying for".
