Literally the opposite. Pirating takes time, effort, resources, and I lose access to "everything" - I only get what I take the time to download and store.
If a product I pay for provides a great service, I'll keep using it. It's worth the money for excellent user experience and convenience. It's when they keep upping the price while reducing the features or content that bothers me, and that's when I'd rather spend the time pirating than paying them for a worse product.
Use tools to curate a feed that auto downloads. Work smarter, not harder.
I do. Still need to configure those too. Don't get me wrong it's not that bad, but there was a world 5 or so years ago where the streaming platforms were just easier for the cost. Not anymore.
What tools? How would you automate and selfhost something similar to Spotify service?
