Your reasons for pirating?

[SubZero]

Most people pirate because content is too expensive. Services like Netflix and Hulu also provide limited content. Meaning you're not guaranteed to find content that you're hoping to watch. Sometimes you have to wait months for a Redbox movie to come out.

I pirate because its free, besides paying for electricity and internet.
I can view it to see if i like it, however I'll buy the media if I like it. I would feel like money has been stolen from me if I've bought some of the crap media I've downloaded.
I can get the media before its available in stores.
I believe I should be able to share what I pay for with whomever I choose and others should be able to share with me.
Plus all the reasons above my post.

There are people in this crazy world who can't afford things, and I feel it's my right and privilege to provide said content to those with little to nothing in their wallets and bank accounts.

Sharing REALLY IS caring.

The RIAA goons will have us believe that we should share anything but our media.

my parents taught me to share my toys and i've been sharing ever since. imo not pirating is the deviant behaviour that needs justification.
