Same. I stopped pirating music and games because Deezer and Steam are so convenient, but as long as there isn't a way to watch most movies and shows on a single service, I won't stop torrenting them. The music industry figured it out and all music streaming services have more or less the same catalog; why can't movie studios do the same?
