The title ascribes it to "piracy" costs, which is incorrect. GL with whatever.

That doesn't say it's a problem. It's a statement of fact. You are projecting a problem onto it.

I pay more for dinner out than I would if signed up for HelloFresh to be delivered to my house.

What if I like eating out?

What if neither cost has any meaningful impact on my bottom line?

Is that a problem too?
