Every Arthouse Buff You Know Is Pirating Films

Of course I’d download a car…

I never got that. A download is a copy. It's not taking the file away from the hoster.

If you download a car all the car manufacturers lose is somebody that is either too poor or too cheap to purchase a car from them.

Obviously that is a multi hundred trillion dollar loss but aside from that, what is the actual harm in downloading a car?

But But I didn’t SELL you the copy!!!

So I lost aLL the monie$ I could have made selling it. So like 11ty bizzallion dollars

I'd download a kitten too.

Oh yes. And border collie puppies!!

Would you down a load?

I'm not pirating, I'm safekeeping. Just in case.

Seriously, I pay for cable TV, I have subscriptions to Hulu, Disney Plus, and Netflix. Anything I watch or listen to that I think I might want to watch or listen to again is in my vault. I'll gladly stream Futurama and Wednesday. If anything happens where I need to unsubscribe for one of those services because of their actions, I will be missing nothing.

if it cannot be purchased it is abandoned media
