Tbh, why pirate music when I can listen to a new album within 5 seconds of its release? I don't have to wait for downloads, don't have to deal with mistaken metadata, I don't have to worry about physical storage sizes.
I fully support piracy for basically everything, but we should count ourselves lucky that music streaming went the way it did and not the way movie and series streaming has gone.
You don’t own the music so it can be edited/taken away as desired by the DSP
Also me personally very little of what I listen to is on DSPs and a lot isn’t even on YouTube but I recognize this as an extreme outlier
