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

  • I pirate games to demo them. If I like them, I buy them legit. If I don’t like them, I don’t even play more than an hour and delete them.

    It’s the only medium I’ve done this… If I am pirating a movie or a TV show, it’s either old and not able to be purchased or only available on Paramount+ which is absolute garbage and doesn’t work 90% of the time I have tried to use it.

      Same. There’s one game I liked well enough after demoing it that I bought merch for the game to support the dev, alongside having bought the game on Steam. If a game is worth the price and is a quality game, I have absolutely no problem going from demo to buying it if I can.
