A new EUIPO study reveals that while piracy rates have stabilized in the EU, significant variations exist across countries and content types. The research also links higher piracy rates and socioeconomic factors such as youth unemployment and income inequality. Higher average incomes and increased awareness of legal alternatives reduce piracy.
I pirate off principle
Saving money is just a bonus
it’s not even about the money to me, if i was a billionaire i would still pirate. i would actually pirate way more because i could afford more hard drives
It’s about sending a message
for me its about how easily the media is accessible. and i like to rewatch shows, i need them to not disappear
Treat that corpo how they treat the end user;)
