t3rmit3,

If it comes from their copy, sure. But streaming proved that people won’t do that if they have a less onerous way to do it, whether it be Spotify or Netflix.

People only started reverting to piracy when services started cannibalizing access to content and demanding more money than the access was worth.

Most video games don’t contain DRM, and can be found as torrents online, and yet video game sales are through the roof.

You’re literally just rehashing all the tired MPAA/RIAA talking points claiming that piracy would kill music and movies, that never panned out despite piracy always still existing.
