Not gp, I want to pay the creators. I also want to own what I pay them for. When I have this option (bandcamp, physical media etc.) I'm going for it without even thinking. It's not about the money. It was about the money when I was 13. Now it's simply about owning my stuff. Renting is not for me. If I don't have any other alternative than pirate, what should I do?
Sharing is caring. If I can share my money with creators I go for it every single time, especially when these creators are simply making my life better with their art.
It's more complex than "want stuff for free". Usually I hate free stuff as they cost in time or worse.
