      That’s not true in the slightest. It doesn’t have to be depriving someone of a good when it can still be depriving someone of the value of that good. If you don’t pay, you don’t get to ingest whatever media you’re talking about. That media has value. It took someone time, and possibly money, to create it. Information has value. If you don’t see a movie/show, you can’t talk about it with others who have. All of that has value, even if you don’t think it has a cost or a price.
