Stop watching so much tv! Piracy is one thing, but wasting your life watching all of those “must have shows” makes it sound like your brain has been co-opted by the content producers. Maybe put down the remote and pick up a book?

Isn't that the same thing?

Libraries are free so no. And, the selection is wider and better given the historical economics of literature vs streaming (steaming?) content production.
Don't sell your brain time to the lowest bidder.
I have already downloaded all of the books. Text compresses very well.
