I mean, if you can afford it you should support industries. I pirate a lot. Movies. Games. Music. Etc. Nothing wrong with that IMO, at this point piracy is the closest we can get to true ownership over anything because the entire industry has f*cked over consumer rights for assumed profit. But I still buy physical releases because I don’t want content I enjoy to die and I like building a collection of good content. Blurays are great (although also DRM encumbered :/), nothing beats the smell of new manga, and at this point music streaming is just a far better experience than piracy (I use qobuz). If you’re young or poor then do what you have to to enjoy yourself. If you’re an adult with a great salary then don’t be an entitled prick. If theirs ways to support content you enjoy you should. If such ways aren’t provided like most Netflix originals not having blurays then f*ck Netflix release some blurays if you want my money.
