"Again"?

I've still been out here since Napster. Welcome back aboard, we kept the torrents warm for you.

    I like something I saw on here awhile ago that was something like " streaming services where only successful because they where slightly more convenient that pirating " for a while I mostly used a couple of streaming services despite most of the apps having really bad interfaces . But my Plex server has been growing in size lately while the streaming services are being cancelled.

    My breaking point for paying for something that I could otherwise get for free is convenience. Doesn't even need to be a lot, I just refuse to pay for a product that artificially more of a hassle than the identical product that I can obtain for free.

    It's not so much that I want a superior product, it's that I refuse to pay money for an inferior alternative.
