Piracy is a byproduct of a bad service. If I pay for a product I shouldn't be locked to a specific hardware or operating system and those issues are resolved with piracy.

They probably blame piracy again for their loss in profits instead of throwing out those woke activists and listening to what their actual customers want.

Agree on the first part but what on earth do „woke activists“ have to do with there being 10 different streaming apps that provide shitty service?

Still paying for my Spotify sub. Not my absolute favorite service (that's jellyfin) but very convenient.
