Convenience - it's a hassle to watch pirated stuff on my TV. But the cost of having to have a bunch of streaming subs means sometimes piracy's hassle is worth it compared to the alternative.

Same, but it's only a matter of time before it's less of a hassle to pirate vs purchase.

And it varies depending on how much I want to see the particular movie/show.

Nowadays piracy isn't a hassle, and it's certainly not a hassle to get things to play on your tv. Just set up a Plex/jellyfin server and install the appropriate app on your tv or tv box. With the arr suite + overseer + qbittorrent + Plex/jellyfin piracy is heaps more convenient than streaming services
