Until TV is setup the same way Spotify/YouTube music/apple music is where you just pick one you like and listen to the same music the other platforms have, they'll continue to have pirating problems.

I currently pay more per month for the various components needed for highly effective pirating than I would for cable and that's purely because it offers a better experience. I can't buy a plex-like experience anywhere for any price legally.

Fix that and I'll go legit just like I did for music.
