Are there pirated contents that you very like and eventually give money to the creator, and where do you find the creators?

Yes. I find them on Bandcamp.

It's a website where you can buy music. I prefer having music in OGG or Opus format, and most of the time you can only get MP3. Bandcamp gives you the option to download your music in several formats, and one of them is OGG.

That's starting to change, because I can find more file-sharers who are using FLAC as storage becomes cheaper. Then I can convert FLAC to Opus. However, Bandcamp also gives you the option to stream music from their app, and it's nice to have access to so much music on my phone.
