44. Post typing is not work. This is sport.
And you don't even know what I do for a living. Decades of it. 'A movie' does not a career make, you know. Many, many, many projects make a career.
Your own choice of words is 'pirate'. Theft. If you are pushing the idea that after market money is not an important income stream to many people, individuals who worked on a film, then you do not know a thing. Residual streams, royalties, profit participation all of these are important components of the business, and forms of income that rank and file artists live on.
You have many misunderstandings of how the business works. That makes it easier for you to do what you do. So you make wild statements that are not connected to reality.
When you say the people all get paid no matter how much theft occurs, that is simply not true. Not true at all.
Piracy. Your chosen word for what you are defending. Piracy. I called it file sharing. But you are correct, it is piracy, and of course you use your words with startling professional accuracy, no white space, so let us read the definition of your own chosen badge:
1 : an act of robbery on the high seas; also : an act resembling such robbery
2 : robbery on the high seas
3 a : the unauthorized use of another's production, invention, or conception especially in infringement of a copyright.
