    I actually probably spend more on hardware and labour pirating content than I would on multiple streaming services, but at least I don’t pad the profits of enshittified platforms, and can watch what I want when I want.

      Ha, I was doing a similar calculation recently. I think the only subscription I ever paid for was Netflix, and for the others I used family and friends’ accounts. Only replacing Netflix, I haven’t broken even, but considering I pirate content from 5-6 different services, it’s absolutely cheaper.
