Not directly related to the music. But I noticed that most games that I s/pirated/borrowed when I was young, I then bought them legally (on Steam/GOG, but when on sale) when I started making money (have a job). I don't even play them again, just the sense of "owning" them makes it worth buying. I don't know what to call this phenomenon. Guilt?

Convenience. Steam is immoral DRM but there's no question it provides a good service. It's essentially a package manager for Windows. There's a reason people don't even remember the days when they had to download and apply multiple 500 MB incremental patches on a crappy connection just to play online.
