For many of us, paying for these services are more convenient that putting up with the bullshit of services like Netflix and Amazon etc... There are so many streaming sites now that it really isn't convenient anymore.
But yes; Just like there are greedy streaming services there are greedy VPN providers. So folks should keep up-to-date on who to choose. (If you ask me, stick with either Mullvad, IVPN or Proton VPN. I've done a lot of research and still am on the landscape of VPNs for my master thesis, and it's a pretty nasty corner of the internt..)
Piracy isn't purely about getting things for free, it's about convince and preserving digital media too.
I agree with you when when it comes to preservation and sometimes even quality. But when it comes to convince nothing beats Netflix.
They certainly convinced me to stop using the account I was password sharing off of and dusting off the old hat and peg leg.
