Buying second hand, going to the dollar theater, or borrowing off a friend are not the same as taking without paying for something, because someone at some point did pay for the thing.

And yes, the creators are depending on their revenues from the thing that they created. It's their income from their job, the same as the income you get from your job.

Your lack of thought (entitlement?) makes me roll my eyes.

The person who scans the manga and upload it payed for it, you know.

AYRT

None of the things I mentioned significantly benefit the creator. In two cases out of three, the object being in circulation doesn't put any money in their pocket at all. Someone pays for a ticket (usually) when they sit in a theater and record a movie. Someone buys a copy of a book before scanning and uploading it.

We live in a world where there are more empty houses than homeless people, in countries with massive homelessness problems. We live in a world with more than enough food to feed all the hungry. It is a moral failing to tie people's continued existence to their job. An artist's ability to take care of themselves should not be tied to how many people paid them for making something. Not in an age where there's no justification for it.

Some things to look up, if you think the claims I'm making are extraordinary
