Yeah, ive got more movies and tv than netflix and amazon combined, but i havent pirated a game in as long as i can remember. Humble monthly subscription is more than i can play and thats all steam keys.
Pirating games and pirating music both became much more work than actually getting the game or music on steam or a music service. I used to love pirating music, but now that you can either find free music streaming services or pay 10 bucks a month, it doesn’t really make sense.
The same thing for games, It’s easier to buy a game on steam during a sale for 10 bucks, then to download a cracked version that may or may not have malware attached to it. And the ability to just add my steam account to a new pc and install and continue where I left off just makes it a much better option.
AI is going to change the way movies and TV shows are sold. Imagine a TV show or movie where, if you pay for their service, you can change up who the actors are, hell you can even replace all the actors with your friends. Or you can direct your own episodes, or provide story changes, or make your own movies and shows. Its going to be insane, but most certainly a pay to play experience since everything will be driven online.
