I have to admit that i still torrent stuff from time-to-time and normally it is because of exactly what you described above and it is only going to become worse.

I talk to people frequently about how i stopped stealing video games because of lowering of prices for digital downloads and I stopped stealing films and tv shows because netflix had most of it.

However, the fragmentation of the streaming industry results in well, exactly what you said: One place has "Friends", the next place has "The Boys" and all of them have different movie selection. Once Disney removes their content, now we have to deal with another subsection.... and all the while torrent sites have all of them. I think we will see a resurgence of piracy soon as this fragmentation starts to take off.

I never really thought about it in that capacity but i think it is true. Once there are too many services, the industry starts to look greedy again and the once $12 (it's only $7 in Asia) becomes 25, 40, 60 dollars and what not, it loses its appeal for sure.
