All I hear is "wah wah, piracy is destroying our life" just like what the RIAA and others do. Except, piracy not only spreads media awareness further, but its technological advancements actually build industries and challenges companies to do better. For instance, Apple Music and Spotify would most likely not have been created had it not been for piracy. Hell, we would not have FM radio and rock n' roll if it weren't for pirate radio in the 60s. And does piracy stop people from purchasing media? Of course not.

I'm sure you'll say the same when AI starts making music instead of musicians.

It's less about the now, and more about the future. AI in art and design has it's uses for sure, but outright copying years of work (regardless of your comment, these people spend years perfecting their style and ability) is shit, but why would you care when you can make your own furry porn for free.
