I think people are either righteous about how nobody should pirate, or they pirate and don't see it as a bad thing. Are there many people who would pirate and then go on the internet and tell lies?
I can say pirating is fine as long as you pay a reasonable amount into the industry you pirate from, say maybe you love movies and already buy $300 of movies a year but need to pirate the rest. Or maybe you pirate stuff you can’t buy anymore. But if you pirate just to save money and don’t put money into that industry then you are bad. As for Linus saying you’d deserve a free high def upgrade, I say it should be a fee. Like if you have it then your digital copy can be upgraded for $1-5. Otherwise there is less incentives for a remaster. Some will buy it but what about something like lord of the rings. Most anybody who will buy it already has so free upgrades would not make much money.
@@zeratulrus142 I think in his position knowing thousands watch him it would be easy for him to lie and pretend to be perfect for the good of his company
Zeratul Rus For me it’s about reasonability. For example I have a pirated copy of Pokémon Diamond on an emulator, but I only think that’s ok because I own it. Also owning thing no longer available I am ok with. Like pirating Zelda Windwaker would be chill
Big Bundle Linus touched on if before, but not like this. Luke always seems hesitant to share his real opinions; he’s probably scared of the hate he’ll receive.
@@dudeomfgstfux it could also be that as the CEO he has to be careful about what he says publicly, since other companies have been hurt by that in the past.

Facts. Although sometimes it's sometimes a pricing problem. It's mostly a not available in your country issue. So it's pretty much impossible to watch a lot of US shows (unless they're Netflix or Amazon Prime original shows) without piracy
While I Don't pirate movies (because I Don't watch many) there have been countless times I was thinking of pirating a game on PC, but realised it had a switch counterpart. Because of the unique nature of the switch and how refreshing it is to play portably, I spent $60 when I could have got it for free, completely agree.
franklingoodwin , I watch Anime and I completely understand what you mean about the availability of content ✊. Hell, If you want to watch Anime you have to choose between Subtitles or Dubbing you can’t have both without paying for the whole series again which makes zero sense.
@@TurkishChubs Anime without piracy is almost completely impossible if you're a hardcore fan. Sure, you can get a lot of the generic current anime on things like Crunchyroll, but even things I want to watch on Funimation are unavailable in my country. Not to mention any older or less popular anime.
I've started buying "Play Offline" games for this very reason. Games like Subnautica, or Divinity 2. They still exist, and honestly i think are better than online games cause they still work when the internet is being crap.
Piracy is honestly mostly the fault of distributors. Look at music for example. Almost nobody pirates music anymore because it's so easy to purchase and buy whenever you want. Yet when you want to watch a film, you have to be subscribed to god knows how many services to get full access to everything you want at once. That's ignoring obscure films you'd never get to see otherwise or films that you can only see on some nasty compressed streaming service.
This. I was eager to switch from having my local downloaded music. But then I got spotify premium, and it is so hassle free. You get everything organized and such. Its great
Exactly. Music is very easy to get - every song I want to listen to is on Apple Music, so I never need to pirate.7/10 times, the movie I'm looking for is only available on a specific streaming platform, where I either need a subscription, or buy a DRM ridden copy that I can only play on specific devices, during specific times, and I have to do a dance for the CEO of the company to hope they don't revoke my right to watch the media.
Lol I have over 8TB of music on my pc. Non of that music is easy to buy. All pirated music. Same goes for movies about 5TB of movies. All pirated as well. You really should learn how to use the internet to find stuff
Imagine a world where your group of friends decide to watch shows on a paid service but the TV detects a pair of eyeballs that dont have a subscription and the TV calls the cops on that poor soul for "pirating" content and the rest of you for "illegal distribution". Piracy Laws only make sense to an extent and right now its just nonsense.
I know this is a year old, but this was a real-ish concern when the XBox 360 first came out and there was the requirement for the kinect to be on. There were talks pricing for renting movies changing depending on how many people were in the room with you.
I drunkenly ordered your hoodie and did not realize until it showed up in the mail. It's a great quality hoodie and definitely worth it, unfortunately I live in florida... free stickers are pretty dope as well!
I have subscription to hotstar, Netflix, Amazon prime & Disney+ and when fucking still don't have the movie I wanna watch you better believe im gonna pirate them
I really appreciate the transparency on Linus' part. At least where I come from, It is not uncommon for people to have this sort of ethos when it comes to downloading things. I think it is the correct thing to do, support the creators that you like in exchange for the content they make. How you do it (if you can) should be up to you.
i have the feeling a lot of people don't even know how to pirate anymore, there are these apps or websites that you can watch a lot of shows for free. but the problem is this software is always full of viruses and spyware, when pirating movies i never had a virus
The thing is, those are very much work supplies and they don't and aren't supposed to do anything with them besides run them through numerous tests and benchmarks. That stuff be expensive, yo. Even for Linus.
@@arnox4554 A lot of the time thats not true, they aren't allowed to resell them but generally speaking they can do with them what they want, I believe I've heard him say that before in a video and from my experience in a similar industry (audio) its the same.
@@Mastealth Well, HE can do what he wants with it because he owns the company, but otherwise, no, the staff can't just start slapping together systems from all their components and start screwing off. Further, I remember in the most recent office tour that Linus said that even his own studio only had about 4 3080s in stock at the moment that they all had to share.
2:03 goddamn this hits my heart hard as a Destiny 2 player. Like, I love the game, but ffs the annual pass was bad enough of a monetary gate, now the season pass + dlc model. Its getting really bad
Destiny 2 is the gaming equivalent of a truck stop town. Cheap stores all around, billboards galore, god awful fast food, and nothing else of substance. I feel like I walked into a casino every time I've played that game. It's shameless how they hustle the player. I stopped playing shortly after I picked it up for that reason.
Njebs would you rather them release a whole new game every year because that’s what it’s pretty close to, destiny is no where near as bad as a battle pass that gives you no additional content
@@andrewhughes4924 I'd prefer the annual pass model as it better suits destiny's dlc model. In an ideal world, of course everything should be obtainable via normal play, of course this isn't realistic though. That being said, the season pass model just feels like an unnecessary addition, it's like a mini dlc. What pissed me off the most was when they add all the new seasonal content and make it feel like it's available for everyone, but then have practicallu every interesting bit of that season have the "you need to have the season pass to use this" slapped onto it. I missed out on the sundial and vex offensive gear which is some of the best gear out there like breach light, repeater and martyrs retribution (which is an entirely unique architype of weapon) because I didn't buy through the gate Bungie had setup.
@@andrewhughes4924 You don't have to buy the battle pass and you still get new content, plus you can actually earn COD points from the free battle pass tiers and eventually use them to buy the battle pass without spending any real money. It's a much better system than Destiny 2, which I quit playing for good almost a year ago (Destiny had been my most heavily focused on game since 2014). I had to quit because of the increased cost and frequency of payments compared to what they used to offer. They just kept making the game worse and worse over time.
@@andrewhughes4924 I'd rather a game didn't feel like a mix between coupon hunting, being hustled, and being the target of a blantant cash grab every time I start up a game.
I am with Linus on this. When I was 22 I joined the military and all my music and movies were stolen. I have zero desire to buy all of that again. It was over 1000 cds
i don't know if it was an autralian thing but i remember when i was younger there was this thing called ultra violet i think and a lot of DVDs came with it but it was just a code to be able to download a copy or like watch it online or something but that was when i didn't have internet cause i was a child and mum didn't believe in computers so i never checked it out
just looked it up not gonna go into details (worth having a look into for learning purposes) but its defs not an Aussie thing (didn't mean to sound self centered just never heard anyone speak about it like... ever)
It wasn't just an Australian thing. It was also available in the UK and Europe. It was pretty much always a palaver to do. It was needlessly difficult to do. The codes would often not work. It's almost like the movie studios didn't want you to have a digital copy as well as the physical copy
@@franklingoodwin yeah I just looked into it only some studios supported it and you had to connect each ones website account to ultra violet then put the code through or something along those lines and Disney had their own version but the I've lived by the way linus does as well if I've bought it then I will download it if that disc is damaged or lost I know it's not legal but its fair laws (especially laws pushed into place by people paid by corporations for the sake of profit) aren't always fair it's one of those grey areas. On the point of games if there is no trial (as there usually isn't nowa days) I'll download and play enough to decide whether I enjoy the game and then either delete or purchase and as someone with over 1k games on steam I am not shy on buying games haha
It's nice to know that my birthday presents supported Linus more then my lifetime of ad watching... which may or may not be 50% ad-blocked viewing. Love my desk pad and water bottle btw.
Actually that is under ICE domain Not the FBI-pirate sites is under the Customs Laws- The FBI investigates more than 297 violations of federal law…. ICE investigates and enforces customs and immigration cases. ... Napster for life/HAHAHA
"In general, we think there is a fundamental misconception about piracy. Piracy is almost always a service problem and not a pricing problem. For example, if a pirate offers a product anywhere in the world, 24 x 7, purchasable from the convenience of your personal computer, and the legal provider says the product is region-locked, will come to your country 3 months after the U.S. release, and can only be purchased at a brick and mortar store, then the pirate's service is more valuable. Most DRM solutions diminish the value of the product by either directly restricting a customers use or by creating uncertainty." - Gabe Newell
To add to this old topic: One of the first games I had pirated was Oblivion because I was too young and just did not have money. But I distinctly remember every moment of it and have since given Bethesda a ton of money. Piracy of their game eventually did not inherently mean that it was a bad outcome for Bethesda.
I’ve bought ltt stuff and will buy a water bottle soon, I keep ads on(when I remember lol). I’ve been watching you guys for years and will keep watching. Keep up the great work 👍🏻
One of the reasons Microsoft has been the OS and Office software leader for three decades is that they really don't put much DRM on their products even though they could. Brand and product familiarity is what keeps them in 80% or more of personal computers. You might be pirating Windows, but you're still using Windows, and when you DO eventually pay for an OS one way or another, it will more likely be Windows.
I 100% agree with you Linus, I have just finished transferring my video collection to plex, over 600 movies not including tv shows, and it irritates me when I see producers piece mill content to get the public to buy multiple times, or selling digital copies, then not giving a way to download those copies which when they go belly up leave you with nothing. By the way, I still have my black & gold copies of star wars on vhs along with the DVDs so I too feel like I paid enough.
I became a pirate when I bought my 3D TV. I was so happy when I got home and was looking to buy the Avatar 3D Bluray. As it turned out that Bluray was exclusive availabe if you bought a Panasonic 3D TV or player. SoI looked on ebay and the prices where beyond sanity. After a lot of Internet research I learned how to safely pirate and found that movie. Over 10 years later I have triple digit TB of movies on my homeserver. I'm pretty sure I'd still buy blurays upon blurays if I didn't have to learn it back then to get that artificial deflaction of that movie. Now I only buy the ones that I want to support after watching them.
Honesty is a treasure not easily found on RUclips. You are a brave man Linus. I was subscribed to LTT only, but now I will subscribe to all your channels. Thank you and your co-workers for being different in a good way.
The Expanse is an example of a show that I loved so much, but couldn't get easy access to - it wasn't streaming on any platform as new episodes, as far as I can remember there either wasn't a SyFy streaming app or The Expanse couldn't be watched on it, and while I do have some sort of live TV cable package bundled with my internet, there was no world where I was watching the show live on TV with ads. But, I adored the show in season 1, bought all the novels and fell even more in love, and bought each season on Google Play for $20? $30? because I wanted to directly support them. I re-watch the whole show before a new season airs, so it has definitely been a worthwhile purchase. And like Linus says, I feel good about the fact that I've supported the show far more than anyone who watched live on TV or streamed it from Amazon or Netflix a year after airing.
I always pirate the ones that don't give me a demo to try at least after that if it's good I'll pay. That, and I pirate after I buy the game if it adds DRM because fuck DRM.
One of my all time favorite sitcoms, The Drew Carey Show, has never had a full physical release. Season 1 got a dvd release, and there was a single disc "best of" release. It ran for 9 seasons. You better believe I've torrented the show, and a lot of them are TV recordings. It's not on any streaming services that I'm aware of, either.
Thanks for clarifying how the video monetization works - I hate adds so just bought 2 packs of cable ties (of course the stealth water bottle is sold out). Love the content and channels, watch daily.
When you have something like gigabit internet at home and a PC with probably 2TB SSD he'd have a much faster time just finding the movie on the pirate bay, downloading it, taking a piss then coming back to a digital copy ready
You know there is a film writer 'Varun Grover', He once downloaded a pirated copy of his own movie. When in an interview he was asked about it, he said torrent had better print of the movie that he had.
Scott the Woz did a video on this if anyone is interested I recommend it highly. He does a really good job at giving you a visualization and examples of the difference between re-release, remaster, reimagined, and the fringe ones that don’t really fit. Super informative.
Not sure if I agree with getting remastered versions when you purchased an original version 5+ years ago type situation because remastering takes extra work for upscaling, etc, depending on the quality of the original film. Now, current movies that are shot and edited in 4k+ is a different story. It's ridiculous to even bother selling the different resolutions of digital copies for different prices or even bother selling the different resolutions. Often the movies I go to purchase, all resolutions are the same price, but why would you bother buying anything other than the highest quality?!
9:35 The remaster of Star Trek The Next Generation was a very expensive and time consuming undertaking. The VFX shots were recorded on film, each shot consisted out of multiple passes. So they had to scan multiple rolls of film, clean the scanned images and then composit everything together just to get the VFX shot. Then they had to scan all the film of the actors (the entire show was shot on film), clean every scanned picture, color correct and then compsit everything together. These high effort remasters I am willing to pay money for. There is a short documentary which explains the entire process - worth to watch!
I'm sorry that I have adblock on and can't buy merch atm because no moneyz and stuff. But hopefully watching "old ass" videos like these, watching almost everything because the videos are just entertaining &/ just informative and pretty talking about you fellas when talking about tech stuff to anyone when discussing tech is alright haha
Watching this a month later and VUDU did just recently do a switch to buying all formats, SD-4k (Availability depending), from buying either a SD, HD, or 4k copy.
I bought a special edition of Fight Club on DVD when DVD first came out, it was shiny, had a bunch of cool features but was $30AUD. Then the re-released it on Bluray for $40AUD. Just the movie. That's unfair. If content producers want us to own licenses and never the actual medium it should go both ways, I have a license to watch this content in the format that best suits me. So either I own the DVD I bought and can do whatever I want with it, or i own a license to watch the media in the format I choose.
That feeling when you listen to Jpop and Swedish music but most of the music is region locked; even the new album of artists whose work you were ALLOWED to buy before. The worst feeling I have had though was when I wanted to rent a movie on amazon and it told me the movie was only available if i subscribed to Starz, like wtf?
One of my biggest pet peeves is you can walk into a shop looking to purchase you favorite new show on physical media. Problem is they only have it available on DVD as in never got a blu-ray / 4K blu-ray release. This problem is exacerbated when you can go on iTunes / Amazon Prime / Netflix and watch that very same show in HD or 4K. What's even worse is when a show gets the first season or two released on Blu-ray but then the rest don't get released or only get released on DVD. A prime example of this is the fact that I own the show Seinfeld on DVD and currently there is no better release available physically. However I can go on Hulu (soon to be Netflix) and watch the entire series in HD. Never mind the cropping / aspect ratio issues as that's neither here nor there and has nothing to do with my point. To boil it down, the powers that be, be it studios or whoever, insist on putting up all these "barriers" that make it difficult for me to simply enjoy things in a manner most convenient to me. That said I'm not expressly condoning piracy but I can understand why some people do it.
Would love something like a lifetime personal license ! You pay like 20-30$ to see it at the theater and get access to every edition (3D, 4k, HDR, surround, re-cut, remasters, 8k etc... ) at their launch. It could be cheaper if you buy it later without the theater pass. I certainly wouldn't buy every movie I watch like that but would certainly do that for the ones I'm hyped like Dune at the end of this year.
A new Sims 4 content pack was announced today $40 for a dozen new items and a city. EA is the reason I pirate most games. I don't remember the last time I paid for a PC game. Don't get me wrong, I pay for games, I own a Switch with about $800 worth of games. If i like the game, I'll buy it. I bought BoTW and the DLC-s, $90, and I've spent 200+ hours playing it. I bought most Dawn of War games, Portal, Besiege, BeamNG, KSP. I spent at least 100 hours in every game listed, of course I'll give them money for it, after pirating the first time (If i had a demo at first...) The same with movies. I go to the cinema whenever I like the movie that is showing, but I pirate most of them. As well as TV shows. I won't pay $10 for a movie I'll watch once. I'll buy it if I loved it after I pirated it and I want to rewatch it multiple times in the future. And I have Netflix, so...
For me this is not really about price or convenience, but sometimes it is LITERALLY impossible to get access to some of the things. Sometimes some things are just not on any streaming platform, when they are the streaming platform is unavailable in my country, other times I get access to streaming platforms (like Amazon Prime Video), but a vast majority of content on these streaming platforms is just not available in my country. Some might say that I can always just buy a CD, but Amazon literally says "Cannot ship to your current location". And it's not like I live in some shithole in the middle of the ocean... it's European Union! And all that taking into account that I AM willing to pay money for that content. Sometimes... there is just no other way
Microsoft has always been about licenses. They never sell you the software, just the (revocable) right to use it however they see fit, so long as you agree to their (changeable) EULA.
The Final Fantasy nerd in me got really frustrated with how that FF7 conversation fizzled out Between whether FF7 got a PC release (it did) and possibly confusing the remaster and the remake (PC got a port in the 90s as well as the remastered port in 2013, neither being the 2020 remake.)
hope u dont watch anything with a product placement since those are ads. your bias is showing . how about you actually watch his reasoning insteado being a fuckin Parrot. personally im a pirate idgaf but holy fuck you clowns are something else.
I'm glad you don't mind me being here. I promise in the future I will buy your merch, I just don't have the money now. I do run ad block but only because there really isn't any way to make it descriminate between your videos and other websites with less savory ads. if it helps, I like all your videos, I try and comment when I have something to say, and I never skip your ad spots (also have used your affiliate links before)
Great thing about Germany, you allowed to rip anything if you don't break copy protection and if you do it its like a wierd grey zone. So you can legally rip Netflix and anything other...
Another reason to pirate movies is to have an original language version. Where I live most movies on the Play Store and alternatives are available only dubbed.
The King and his men stole the queen from her bed, and bound her in her bones. The seas be ours, and by the powers; where we will, we'll roam. Yo ho, all hands, hoist the colors high. Heave ho, thieves and beggars; never shall we die. Some men have died and some are alive and others sail on the sea. With the keys to the cage and the devil to pay, we lay to the fiddler's green. Yo ho haul together, hoist the colors high. Heave ho, thieves and beggars; never shall we die. The bell has been raised from its watery grave, hear its sepulchral tone. A call to all; pay heed the squall, and turn your sails to home. Yo ho, haul together, hoist the colors high. Heave ho, thieves and beggars; never shall we die. Yo ho, haul together, hoist the colors high. Heave ho, thieves and beggars; never shall we die. Yo ho, haul together, hoist the colors high. Heave ho, thieves and beggars; never shall we die. The king and his men stole the queen from her bed, and bound her in her bones. The seas be ours, and by the powers; where we will; we'll roam.
In the United States, you often buy a movie and get a DVD, Blu-Ray and Digital Copy to stream. If there's no DVD copy you still get a digital copy. I got Once Upon a Time in Hollywood and got a 4K Blu Ray, 1080p Blue Ray and Digital Copy. I did have to pay for wifi on a plane to watch my movie collection though...
Holy crap that WoW mention of the battlechest was such a blast from the past. I'm sure most people would remember the D2 battlechest (I think it came with D1?) but the WoW one is never mentioned
Informative and honest. Being based in AU definitely find we get the short end of the stick with content. Would be amazing if we could remove region based issues and have content available everywhere at this same time. Keep up the good work.
ive watched thousands of LTT videos, across ALL of your affiliated channels(EXCEPT the "apple" channel), which i ALWAYS thumbs up, regardless if i watch the entire 2+ hour builds, yet i use an adblocker. so for a moment there i somewhat felt bad, but to be honest Ive also bought 3 packs of your LTT cable ties, so i completely feel absolved of any wrong doing, lol. thanks guys, keep up the EPIC work, i watch atleast one video each day from you guys! keeps the PC DR. away!🤗
Final Fantasy 7 was on PC, I still have my 4 CD copy by Eidos. It still has a bug that if you play it in DX9, all the AMVs play upside down to my knowledge.
Didn't get into collecting physical copies of movies until 4K HDR Blurays began. I will 100% buy any movie I enjoyed physically now for that superior quality. For organization and storing I even rip my own high res mkv files and slowly converting to h265. Obviously don't distribute but the fast I can go get essentially the same format movie that played in the theater is incredible.
I feel the divorce thing. I remember when my parents broke up, my brother and I had to choose between living with our dad or mom. I chose to live with dad my brother chose to live with mom. Divorce is rough, I don't think I saw my brother for a year. We did not live together again until the court ordered split custody, then it was moving every 2 weeks.
Didn't amazon do this? I remember when you bought the physical copy of a dvd or cd you would get the digital copy for free. What happened to that? Also when we got a computer it came with a burning software already included so we could burn cd's and dvd's.
Oh wow, Luke has just sent me back to my IT classroom with that lol limewire reference. I've spent many a lessons running around the classroom spamming lol limewire windows so it's just a chorus of low poly white noise and the occasional "YEAH!". Good times.
Gotta be honest, I use sites like kimcartoon/kisscartoon to check out shows since I don't own cable, then if I like the show based off the first few episodes I'll wait till the entire season is out until I legally purchase it to watch. I also "pirate" to watch movies and shows I already own on DVD/vhs since my computer doesn't have a DVD player. It's just easier and more convenient. Basically, if your stuff is good, I buy. Never knew I'd want to support the show "Primal" until I saw it's great quality! That EU article was pretty correct I guess.
In Germany you can legally make backups of cds, dvds and blurays that you own for the case that the disk gets lost, scratched to hell or flat out snaps in half. Redistribution of those copies is illegal for, hopefully, obvious reasons
Remember folks, EU tried conducting a study to prove piracy hurts the industry, but it accidentally proved that it actually helps it.
Wait really? I get it in terms of pirating Adobe software but I am interested to hear how it would help.
Could you elaborate further on how it helps? Curious
@@justinbuckley maybe it's because of exposure

Linus is refreshingly honest here, i think alot of people would try to pretend they are perfect and would never be a pirate. I respect the honesty

I can say pirating is fine as long as you pay a reasonable amount into the industry you pirate from, say maybe you love movies and already buy $300 of movies a year but need to pirate the rest. Or maybe you pirate stuff you can’t buy anymore. But if you pirate just to save money and don’t put money into that industry then you are bad.

franklingoodwin , I watch Anime and I completely understand what you mean about the availability of content ✊. Hell, If you want to watch Anime you have to choose between Subtitles or Dubbing you can’t have both without paying for the whole series again which makes zero sense.
@@TurkishChubs Anime without piracy is almost completely impossible if you're a hardcore fan. Sure, you can get a lot of the generic current anime on things like Crunchyroll, but even things I want to watch on Funimation are unavailable in my country. Not to mention any older or less popular anime.

Piracy is honestly mostly the fault of distributors. Look at music for example. Almost nobody pirates music anymore because it's so easy to purchase and buy whenever you want.
Yet when you want to watch a film, you have to be subscribed to god knows how many services to get full access to everything you want at once.
That's ignoring obscure films you'd never get to see otherwise or films that you can only see on some nasty compressed streaming service.
This. I was eager to switch from having my local downloaded music. But then I got spotify premium, and it is so hassle free. You get everything organized and such. Its great
"nobody pirates music"
Me, using VLC because Spotify doesn't have anime songs: _yeah, I guess no one pirates music_
Exactly. Music is very easy to get - every song I want to listen to is on Apple Music, so I never need to pirate.7/10 times, the movie I'm looking for is only available on a specific streaming platform, where I either need a subscription, or buy a DRM ridden copy that I can only play on specific devices, during specific times, and I have to do a dance for the CEO of the company to hope they don't revoke my right to watch the media.

I really appreciate the transparency on Linus' part. At least where I come from, It is not uncommon for people to have this sort of ethos when it comes to downloading things. I think it is the correct thing to do, support the creators that you like in exchange for the content they make. How you do it (if you can) should be up to you.
i have the feeling a lot of people don't even know how to pirate anymore, there are these apps or websites that you can watch a lot of shows for free. but the problem is this software is always full of viruses and spyware, when pirating movies i never had a virus

2:03 goddamn this hits my heart hard as a Destiny 2 player. Like, I love the game, but ffs the annual pass was bad enough of a monetary gate, now the season pass + dlc model. Its getting really bad
Destiny 2 is the gaming equivalent of a truck stop town. Cheap stores all around, billboards galore, god awful fast food, and nothing else of substance. I feel like I walked into a casino every time I've played that game. It's shameless how they hustle the player. I stopped playing shortly after I picked it up for that reason.
Njebs would you rather them release a whole new game every year because that’s what it’s pretty close to, destiny is no where near as bad as a battle pass that gives you no additional content
@@andrewhughes4924 I'd prefer the annual pass model as it better suits destiny's dlc model. In an ideal world, of course everything should be obtainable via normal play, of course this isn't realistic though. That being said, the season pass model just feels like an unnecessary addition, it's like a mini dlc.
What pissed me off the most was when they add all the new seasonal content and make it feel like it's available for everyone, but then have practicallu every interesting bit of that season have the "you need to have the season pass to use this" slapped onto it. I missed out on the sundial and vex offensive gear which is some of the best gear out there like breach light, repeater and martyrs retribution (which is an entirely unique architype of weapon) because I didn't buy through the gate Bungie had setup.
@@andrewhughes4924 You don't have to buy the battle pass and you still get new content, plus you can actually earn COD points from the free battle pass tiers and eventually use them to buy the battle pass without spending any real money. It's a much better system than Destiny 2, which I quit playing for good almost a year ago (Destiny had been my most heavily focused on game since 2014). I had to quit because of the increased cost and frequency of payments compared to what they used to offer. They just kept making the game worse and worse over time.

I am with Linus on this. When I was 22 I joined the military and all my music and movies were stolen. I have zero desire to buy all of that again. It was over 1000 cds
i don't know if it was an autralian thing but i remember when i was younger there was this thing called ultra violet i think and a lot of DVDs came with it but it was just a code to be able to download a copy or like watch it online or something but that was when i didn't have internet cause i was a child and mum didn't believe in computers so i never checked it out
just looked it up not gonna go into details (worth having a look into for learning purposes) but its defs not an Aussie thing (didn't mean to sound self centered just never heard anyone speak about it like... ever)
It wasn't just an Australian thing. It was also available in the UK and Europe. It was pretty much always a palaver to do. It was needlessly difficult to do. The codes would often not work. It's almost like the movie studios didn't want you to have a digital copy as well as the physical copy
@@franklingoodwin I never had an issue with it.
@@franklingoodwin yeah I just looked into it only some studios supported it and you had to connect each ones website account to ultra violet then put the code through or something along those lines and Disney had their own version but the I've lived by the way linus does as well if I've bought it then I will download it if that disc is damaged or lost I know it's not legal but its fair laws (especially laws pushed into place by people paid by corporations for the sake of profit) aren't always fair it's one of those grey areas.
On the point of games if there is no trial (as there usually isn't nowa days) I'll download and play enough to decide whether I enjoy the game and then either delete or purchase and as someone with over 1k games on steam I am not shy on buying games haha

"In general, we think there is a fundamental misconception about piracy. Piracy is almost always a service problem and not a pricing problem. For example, if a pirate offers a product anywhere in the world, 24 x 7, purchasable from the convenience of your personal computer, and the legal provider says the product is region-locked, will come to your country 3 months after the U.S. release, and can only be purchased at a brick and mortar store, then the pirate's service is more valuable. Most DRM solutions diminish the value of the product by either directly restricting a customers use or by creating uncertainty."
- Gabe Newell
And this is why I buy from Steam instead of from Origin.
To add to this old topic: One of the first games I had pirated was Oblivion because I was too young and just did not have money. But I distinctly remember every moment of it and have since given Bethesda a ton of money. Piracy of their game eventually did not inherently mean that it was a bad outcome for Bethesda.
Hats off to Linus for his honesty, Plus I think he's on fairly ethically strong ground.

One of the reasons Microsoft has been the OS and Office software leader for three decades is that they really don't put much DRM on their products even though they could. Brand and product familiarity is what keeps them in 80% or more of personal computers. You might be pirating Windows, but you're still using Windows, and when you DO eventually pay for an OS one way or another, it will more likely be Windows.
I 100% agree with you Linus, I have just finished transferring my video collection to plex, over 600 movies not including tv shows, and it irritates me when I see producers piece mill content to get the public to buy multiple times, or selling digital copies, then not giving a way to download those copies which when they go belly up leave you with nothing. By the way, I still have my black & gold copies of star wars on vhs along with the DVDs so I too feel like I paid enough.
I became a pirate when I bought my 3D TV.
I was so happy when I got home and was looking to buy the Avatar 3D Bluray. As it turned out that Bluray was exclusive availabe if you bought a Panasonic 3D TV or player. SoI looked on ebay and the prices where beyond sanity.
After a lot of Internet research I learned how to safely pirate and found that movie. Over 10 years later I have triple digit TB of movies on my homeserver.
I'm pretty sure I'd still buy blurays upon blurays if I didn't have to learn it back then to get that artificial deflaction of that movie. Now I only buy the ones that I want to support after watching them.

The Expanse is an example of a show that I loved so much, but couldn't get easy access to - it wasn't streaming on any platform as new episodes, as far as I can remember there either wasn't a SyFy streaming app or The Expanse couldn't be watched on it, and while I do have some sort of live TV cable package bundled with my internet, there was no world where I was watching the show live on TV with ads. But, I adored the show in season 1, bought all the novels and fell even more in love, and bought each season on Google Play for $20? $30? because I wanted to directly support them. I re-watch the whole show before a new season airs, so it has definitely been a worthwhile purchase. And like Linus says, I feel good about the fact that I've supported the show far more than anyone who watched live on TV or streamed it from Amazon or Netflix a year after airing.
I honestly do the same for games. Every game in my steam account was pirated first. I totally agree with supporting the content.
I always pirate the ones that don't give me a demo to try at least after that if it's good I'll pay. That, and I pirate after I buy the game if it adds DRM because fuck DRM.
One of my all time favorite sitcoms, The Drew Carey Show, has never had a full physical release. Season 1 got a dvd release, and there was a single disc "best of" release. It ran for 9 seasons. You better believe I've torrented the show, and a lot of them are TV recordings. It's not on any streaming services that I'm aware of, either.

When you have something like gigabit internet at home and a PC with probably 2TB SSD he'd have a much faster time just finding the movie on the pirate bay, downloading it, taking a piss then coming back to a digital copy ready
It probably takes him less time to download a 50gb bluray rip than ripping one even on his 999990 cores pcs.

You know there is a film writer 'Varun Grover',
He once downloaded a pirated copy of his own movie.
When in an interview he was asked about it, he said torrent had better print of the movie that he had.
Scott the Woz did a video on this if anyone is interested I recommend it highly. He does a really good job at giving you a visualization and examples of the difference between re-release, remaster, reimagined, and the fringe ones that don’t really fit. Super informative.
Not sure if I agree with getting remastered versions when you purchased an original version 5+ years ago type situation because remastering takes extra work for upscaling, etc, depending on the quality of the original film.
Now, current movies that are shot and edited in 4k+ is a different story. It's ridiculous to even bother selling the different resolutions of digital copies for different prices or even bother selling the different resolutions. Often the movies I go to purchase, all resolutions are the same price, but why would you bother buying anything other than the highest quality?!
I believe that's the thinking as most movies from the last 20 years were originally made in HD and just downscaled to fit on dvd
9:35 The remaster of Star Trek The Next Generation was a very expensive and time consuming undertaking.
The VFX shots were recorded on film, each shot consisted out of multiple passes. So they had to scan multiple rolls of film, clean the scanned images and then composit everything together just to get the VFX shot.
Then they had to scan all the film of the actors (the entire show was shot on film), clean every scanned picture, color correct and then compsit everything together.
These high effort remasters I am willing to pay money for. There is a short documentary which explains the entire process - worth to watch!

That's unfair. If content producers want us to own licenses and never the actual medium it should go both ways, I have a license to watch this content in the format that best suits me.

"its dinner time"
One of my biggest pet peeves is you can walk into a shop looking to purchase you favorite new show on physical media. Problem is they only have it available on DVD as in never got a blu-ray / 4K blu-ray release. This problem is exacerbated when you can go on iTunes / Amazon Prime / Netflix and watch that very same show in HD or 4K. What's even worse is when a show gets the first season or two released on Blu-ray but then the rest don't get released or only get released on DVD.
A prime example of this is the fact that I own the show Seinfeld on DVD and currently there is no better release available physically. However I can go on Hulu (soon to be Netflix) and watch the entire series in HD. Never mind the cropping / aspect ratio issues as that's neither here nor there and has nothing to do with my point.
To boil it down, the powers that be, be it studios or whoever, insist on putting up all these "barriers" that make it difficult for me to simply enjoy things in a manner most convenient to me. That said I'm not expressly condoning piracy but I can understand why some people do it.
Would love something like a lifetime personal license ! You pay like 20-30$ to see it at the theater and get access to every edition (3D, 4k, HDR, surround, re-cut, remasters, 8k etc... ) at their launch. It could be cheaper if you buy it later without the theater pass.
I certainly wouldn't buy every movie I watch like that but would certainly do that for the ones I'm hyped like Dune at the end of this year.

I bought most Dawn of War games, Portal, Besiege, BeamNG, KSP.
I spent at least 100 hours in every game listed, of course I'll give them money for it, after pirating the first time (If i had a demo at first...)
The same with movies. I go to the cinema whenever I like the movie that is showing, but I pirate most of them.
As well as TV shows. I won't pay $10 for a movie I'll watch once. I'll buy it if I loved it after I pirated it and I want to rewatch it multiple times in the future.
And I have Netflix, so...
For me this is not really about price or convenience, but sometimes it is LITERALLY impossible to get access to some of the things. Sometimes some things are just not on any streaming platform, when they are the streaming platform is unavailable in my country, other times I get access to streaming platforms (like Amazon Prime Video), but a vast majority of content on these streaming platforms is just not available in my country. Some might say that I can always just buy a CD, but Amazon literally says "Cannot ship to your current location". And it's not like I live in some shithole in the middle of the ocean... it's European Union! And all that taking into account that I AM willing to pay money for that content.
Sometimes... there is just no other way

In the United States, you often buy a movie and get a DVD, Blu-Ray and Digital Copy to stream. If there's no DVD copy you still get a digital copy.

Divorce is rough, I don't think I saw my brother for a year. We did not live together again until the court ordered split custody, then it was moving every 2 weeks.
YO LINUS just got my LTT hat
Didn't amazon do this? I remember when you bought the physical copy of a dvd or cd you would get the digital copy for free. What happened to that? Also when we got a computer it came with a burning software already included so we could burn cd's and dvd's.
I thought this channel was LMG clips not LMG 25 min episode
It's technically a clip
Oh wow, Luke has just sent me back to my IT classroom with that lol limewire reference. I've spent many a lessons running around the classroom spamming lol limewire windows so it's just a chorus of low poly white noise and the occasional "YEAH!".
Good times.
I love how intellectually honest everyone is here.
Gotta be honest, I use sites like kimcartoon/kisscartoon to check out shows since I don't own cable, then if I like the show based off the first few episodes I'll wait till the entire season is out until I legally purchase it to watch. I also "pirate" to watch movies and shows I already own on DVD/vhs since my computer doesn't have a DVD player. It's just easier and more convenient. Basically, if your stuff is good, I buy. Never knew I'd want to support the show "Primal" until I saw it's great quality! That EU article was pretty correct I guess.
Been a pirate since 99. If I lived in the 1800s I would have been a pirate.
Pirates weren't really around in the 1800s, more like the 1600s
In Germany you can legally make backups of cds, dvds and blurays that you own for the case that the disk gets lost, scratched to hell or flat out snaps in half.
Redistribution of those copies is illegal for, hopefully, obvious reasons
