Remember, kids: When you pirate a show, you’re intentionally abusing the cast and crew by withholding revenue from them! (Even though the majority of them do not make royalties from it and even those that do make peanuts compared to how much money the publisher just pockets.)

But also remember, kids: When the publisher decides to strip you of a show that you paid their explicitly specified “forever price” for, that’s 100% their right and they would never do anything without the complete and uncritical backing of the people who made the show. And if you have any negative thoughts about that, you’re also intentionally abusing the cast and crew by wanting to watch it when they have clearly spoken through the publisher that they definitely never want you to watch them again, and their only wish is that their media legacy will be randomly erased from people’s access at the drop of the corporate hat.
