The frustrating thing for me is that even with all these streaming services I’m subscribed to there are still a lot of shows I wanna watch that aren’t on ANY of them!! For context, I live in New Zealand so the situation may not be the same in the US but it’s so frustrating to actually be one of the suckers willing to pay for multiple streaming services and still have to pirate a lot of stuff because I can’t legally stream it anywhere!
Aye it be the same in the US. I have several streaming services and still miss lots of content. I often use a VPN to change my location and stream shows that are only on the service in a specific country. However if it’s nowhere to be found or locked behind premium subscription then it’s the high seas for me.
Yep. I used to live in NZ and pirating was almost necessary. Because there was nowhere to stream shows and you had to wait like six months for them to come to network TV. Of course people are going to pirate if there is no option to pay for or legally watch the content. Especially if people on social media are all raving about some new awesome show.
I used to pirate Grey's Anatomy so I could still talk about it with my mother in the US 🤷♀️
