Yep, GabeN has always been right on the ball with this. I stopped pirating games altogether and have like 900 games on Steam at this point. I still pirate music, shows, movies and software quite liberally, mostly because trying to find what content is on which platform is a massive hassle. Jellyfin + sonarr/radarr makes it completely painless plus I actually own the files and they can never be retroactively removed, so why on earth would I go with the alternative?

I still pay for stuff on Bandcamp, but that's not because it's easier but because I want to support the artists I enjoy more directly.
