IMO, there is nothing wrong with pirating movies, TV-series, games, etc.
Pop-culture shouldn't exist only for those who can afford it.

Agree with some parts.
Companies should have some sort of Purchasing Power Parity system in place. Price goods according to the country's currency.

If some game costs 80$ in the US, how much would you like to pay in India?

A lot of effort goes into making the game or series right, I heard the chances of a game or series actually making any money is so slim, or I may be wrong too

I saw some statistic saying 90% shows get cancelled after the pilot

So studios invest like in many shows and whichever one performs the best, they profit off of that and offset the losses too I think
Like when you think of HBO you generally think of sopranos, Game of thrones, the wire, house of the dragon etc but they have like hundreds of shows which failed and they would have produced that too

surprised to see more people are agreeing to this
the statement is somewhat oversimplifying the justification whereas there's a lot to play and I really think people should respect art or a product more rather than think about missing out on pop culture
or put it this way
would you want people to use your creation for free if you have invested hefty amount and time on it

Artists deserve to be paid, that’s it. They’ve put in enough effort to create it, they should be able to monetise and have enough motivation to create more.
