Yeah, I basically stopped pirating entirely despite doing it relentlessly early in life. I still owe Capcom a thousand bucks if I am to pay that one alone back.

The basically part is that I still pirate what little music I need. Fuck the music industry.

My exception is smaller bands with bamdcamp.

Buying from there supports the artists well!

I basically do the same. I buy a majority of albums as records from my favorite bands or just bands I want to support.
