I provide financial support to the services I believe in, Washington Post, NYT, Nebula, previously HBO, a few others.
But it's absolutely on my terms. If I were a broke college student. I'd have no issues pirating literally everything. As it is, I'll find ways to get the stuff from companies that get too greedy. "Public secrets for sale" isn't a thing, and that's all data of any form really is. The difference between someone telling you the basic plot of a movie and telling you every pixel of the movie isn't all that far apart, just the amount of data they're repeating.
