    Or, perhaps it would be more cost effective to spend your money developing a way to access content that isn’t user-hostile. Then, suddenly, piracy wouldn’t be on the rise.

        I know that you mean that sarcastically, and I agree. In the end, they could be happy with some passive income on old IPs but decide to be greedy instead.
