They do offer an alternative. You can pay to watch each show. You're just choosing to ignore it or think it's too expensive to justify stealing it.


There is no way to pay for each show. Even they pay-to-watch channels are full of ads, actually, the paid channels have more ads than all other channels.

Which is why I stopped watching TV completely, I watch news and documentaries from public channels online, but that’s it.


You can buy ad-free content from Amazon, iTunes or Play Store. Or, you know, DVDs.


Well, the only content I can buy on Amazon, iTunes or the Play Store is dubbed and in 720p quality.

That’s shit.

If I want to get 1080p quality, undubbed, I have to either pirate, or order a DVD from Amazon.co.uk, which leads to obscene delivery costs. (Amazon.com doesn’t even deliver overseas).
