MPA wouldn't have anywhere near as big of a piracy problem if all the large streaming platforms worked together to create a singular service at a good price that has everything you want. Now it's easier and cheaper than ever to buy a few external and VPN service and download/torrent your favorite shows over paying for over 5 streaming services (at least in the US) and having nothing to watch because all your favorite shows got removed half way through you watching the first season (and only season if it's a new series).
That, and there are a few shows I have to watch through piracy because they aren't even available anywhere in America.
VRV was looking to be exactly what you are talking about, then Sony wrecked it
