I’ve seen a few threads pop up about how much money people have saved. Most if not all of the top comments say $0, since they wouldn’t buy it anyway. Some say $0 since they wouldn’t be able to afford it.

Am I the only one who can afford to pay, would pay if no other option, but chooses to specifically not pay so I don’t pad some corporations bottom line that suits get paid bonuses off of? Not to mention rising subscription prices with less return…

Edit: an additional remark that’s come up in comments and I’m curious about. For those that say they wouldn’t buy it anyway, how do you personally determine what you would/wouldn’t buy? It seems easy to move goal posts when you have the power on your end
