Movies: I like to playback raw video files with a desktop video player. I settle for nothing less. I would gladly pay a few doubloons in exchange for a movie video file download but nobody offers this, (except for GOG that one time with a paltry selection of films).
Games: “Hey we released this new game buuuuut you’re going to need to purchase an entire separate computer system we call a ‘console’ because we refuse to compile the game binary for PC OSes, nor provide the source for you to do so yourself”
I interpret distributors and publishers treating me as a second (or third) class citizen as carte blanche to acquire your content and make the necessary changes to make it work on my environment of choice.
I just don’t really feel the need to justify my piracy.
I watch pirate movies and tv and I don’t feel a teeny tiny bit of remorse, nor interest in whether it’s ethical.
FYI, it’s entirely justifiable
That’s subjective.
My point is, I just don’t care.
The only time I actually care is if it’s an indie game. If I like it enough I’ll buy it because I’m all for paying indie devs.
