the best answer yet to “why pirate movies”
Situation: There are 14 competing streaming platforms.
Ridiculous! We need one streaming platform for all the media licenses.
Situation: There are 15 competing streaming platforms.
What we actually need is a ban on exclusivity. There aren’t nearly as many complaints about music streaming services because most music is on all of them.
Plus if more TV and movies were on multiple streaming services, they’d have to start competing on service instead of exclusive content and maybe actually improve the experience…
I’m reminded what GabeN said: Piracy is an issue of service, not price.
I agree with him up to a point. As price gouging is a feature of modern day streaming.
One reason Steam became the defacto standard is because the insane Steam sales that Valve put on in the early days.
They kept their monopoly in the face of other stores giving away games mostly due to service, though.
