Don’t watch it? Why do you feel it’s your right or a need to access these materials?

There's no right or need claimed, so your question is irrelevant. The person you're responding to said it's "good", not that there was a need or right.

People don't have a right or need of reading The Bible, but many think it's good if people do. It's to the degree that sometimes they're printed at cost and distributed for free. The point is, there can be benefits for humans who can't purchase media to be able to experience it anyway. Now, whether that extends to copyright infringement and piracy being some noble act is a separate bridge to negotiate.
