I'd like to have Netflix. I'd really like. But the only alternative here costs 30€, doesn't work on every device, and has a very limited selection, even limited in time. I won't try to bypass a geo-block just to watch movies at a normal price. It's not even authorized!

I understand that bypassing the geo-block isn't allowed but surely it's better that the content producers/creators receive some money form you rather than pirating it?

Bypassing the geo-block is just as illegal as using torrents.

If someone for ids me to use/buy content, and I do that anyway, then it's pirating.

I'm not denying its illegality but morally it's less wrong.
