It’s interesting to see how the acceptance rates decrease with age, in an inverse correlation with purchasing power.
Young people are broke, and the entertainment industry is going to have a hard time adapting to this reality in a few years if things don’t change.
My legal gaming library is absolutely massive, because I’m able to test games for free first to see if I like it. IMO making people wager $70 that they’ll enjoy a game based on doctored trailers shouldn’t be legal. Same thing with music. Imagine not being able to listen to an album before buying it.
Bandcamp is a godsend. You can even listen to entire albums legally before you buy!
I pay legally for:
- YouTube Premium
- Peacock
- Max
- Spotify
- Global Comics
I also have a monthly pass at a local theater chain and see new movies almost every week.
BUT I torrent everything else. Sorry, Universal, I’m not going to pay $24 to rent Fast X.
