Isn’t paying for subscriptions exactly the zeitgeist? People pay for Netflix, instead of just recording stuff for free and sharing copies among friends and family. It’s convenience you pay for (if we keep Netflix originals out of scope)

But Netflix is convenient (or was). HP is abusive, and you have to wonder about Stockholm Syndrome
