Ironically, it was Netflix and Steam that proved if you make things accessible the amount of people pirating content diminishes. People DO want to pay fair prices to legally obtain or consume content.
would agree. And why it never made sense at their semi-annual efforts or bluster to crack down on cred sharing.
The people piggybacking creds arent going to be buying their own account.
Take the MLB as an example.
1. They blackout your home team.
2. They also crack down hard on credential sharing
3. They also crack down hard on using a proxy/VPN to try and bypass blackouts.
The blackouts are outrageous in the own rights. The teams i want to follow are 4.5 and 11 hours away by car and are blacked out.....EVEN if i buy the team specific package for that team, games are blacked out....
