Music because the artists usually do concerts and such, which make up the bulk of their personal profits plus usually requires a person to actually be physically present and usually costs money to get in. Sometimes you get your dick sucked at them too, so that's totally worth it.

Can't get your dicky sucked at piratebay. You probably wouldn't want to.

But what about GameStop?
I've heard dick sucking can occur there.

Games because developers do not make a percentage off total sales.

music
artists get only like 2% of the sales off the album
like the artist? donate

Can't pirate gamestop though. Nor that BJ.

Smart people know the smart thing to do is get something with no cost. Simple as that.

Who gives a fuck? If you want to pirate it, then pirate it. You don't need to justify shit.

This is only true for American musicians.

>concerts and such, which make up the bulk of their personal profits
As someone who's been playing music for 20+ years, you don't know shit.

get some tshirts or something dude, jesus this isn't hard.

why does justification matter

just do what you feel, not virtue signal like a faggot

Damn son. Give me your YouTube. I don't give a fuck about genres, I just like music that sounds nice.

Why not just put it on bandcamp or something?

copyrights/licensing/general jewing of the record company

an independent artist/band can get more money from selling online
but its hard to advertise and expand without big music backing you up

/r/ing fag buys music.jpg

But what about self-published games?

You mean I " 'mfuckingstupid "tunes

Yeah but you aren't famous so you don't count pleb

Booking shows costs money, making and selling merch costs money, venues take a large cut of profits. At the end of a "$1200" gig my band can usually walk away with MAYBE $700. Believe it or not, even "full time" musicians still need to hold down a day job to get by.

idgaf

This is what shitty hardcore kids do and think they'll get rich, we aren't talking about your shit bands, but actually musicians that play on the radio, they get paid true money.

You are a VA they are actors you get paid shit they get paid diamonds.

Fucking this

You have no idea how the industry works,

fucking this

nobody gives a shit if you dont want or cant pay for something

just pirate it and fuck off

B-but I have to justify every one of my actions in order to tell myself that I'm a good person!

I know it better than those who just make a band and don't get sign to a big record label, then complain about how oooh I have to rent, buy merch and sell it, and buy tickets to sell at my show. Sorry you aren't big.

i pirate games that i know are complete shit so i hack em and finish them to prove they are shit.
deal with it bitch.

Pirates are alright

At least they aren't buying single player games from G2A

i don't care
i just want
free shit

They usually do

...

id fuck that yuuka

Neither, I do both and know exactly what I'm doing and don't feel the need to justify it to make myself feel better

Neither.

do you have the webm with sound of that pic? Wonder if it's still on /wsg/

Was this a post on Jay Pee or something?

Why do you care?
Just pirate.
Who's going to judge you, a bunch of neckbeards?

Oh I meant the depressing one, it was narrated with a scary voice instead

I prefer this one.

Asking for a friend

They're both stealing.

music, all of that shit is on youtube anyway

None are really.

>justifying media piracy
Who cares? I just don't want to have to blow money on manchild escapism shit when I could just get it for free without leaving my house.
