>people pirate mostly because it is easier and more convenient than the legitimate counterpart

Sure, same logic as "people steal when it's easy to do so"

>music piracy almost disappeared when convenient streaming services appeared

Too much to go into now, but Spotify is definately next on the list of enshittification. It's very easy to "end piracy" when your plan is to capture the market with unsustainable business models and clamp down later when money is tight.

>Make something as easy as pirating and people will pay for it.

We're kind of seeing that right now with Gamepass. And all that does is make me fear for the end of games preservation as we speak. But I suppose that's the market demand, so it is what it is.

We already saw what happened with the mobile scene with this. apps are essentially "free" so it's easier than piracy to jump in. I'm not sure if that's an ideal model either.
