I'll start: it wasn't too long ago that one wasn't expected to pay out of one's coked up nose for programs (apps). One used to be able to buy a thing and then own the thing. Vacuum cleaners. Video games. Photoshops. Now one has to sign up for it, enter one's credit card info and fucking pay monthly for some harebrained "service."

And I blame all of you. Probably 9/10ths of you are on apple products and/or are locked into absolutely insane digital ecosystems and you all laid down and took it. All of you fucking libs. You took it, you normalized it, and fuck all of you.

    even if i had money i'd still pirate, if i want to watch a movie i want to click a file and watch it not have to check each different subscription service and then watch it in low bitrate 1080p

      I pirate movies despite having money for this exact reason, when you pay you get a garbage user experience and unskippable ads. I will do anything to avoid advertising I fucking hate it

        on the website i use you can still get the commentaries as an additional audio track embedded in the file but if you want the bts stuff you need to download the full rip which is a pain.
