Heck, streaming services are dirty cheap these days and if you can’t pay 10€ or so per month, well, you’re cheap.

Yeah, it’s not about the money. The amount I spent on my personal media server could sign me up for almost every streaming services in existance … for a decade or so.

But piracy doesn’t feel right towards content creators

I agree … when it’s like a indie creator with a few thousand youtube followers or something. I like patreon for that (and spending way too much on that, too).

But if the creators are like hollywood millionaires or studios run by massive corporations? Well, fuck’em! Hell, I wish piracy was actually stealing so I could actually financially hurt them.
