    The hunt is part of the fun. Like how people will opt to build a PC or a keyboard over a pre-built or pull out vinyl over digital. The steps taken to retrieve and enjoy the media is sometimes a relaxing process.

      Yeah, no.

      The hunt is only fun if you’ve got time to spare.

      Throw in a spouse, kids, good but demanding job, a place to live, social obligations, detoriating (geriatric) parents, and you’re so happy you can just mash one single button and your favourite track, game or series starts to play.

      That’s the reason why people stop pirating. Time.

      When time is not (yet) your most precious resource you can see the fun in anything. Even virus scanning.
