The Pirate Bay Remains Resilient, 20 Years After the Raid | Hacker News

A Hacker News discussion says piracy still appeals because torrents often preserve media better than streaming platforms.

Commenters argue that official services frequently remove, edit, or degrade content, while torrent communities keep fuller versions intact.

Examples include missing audio tracks, altered episodes, and titles disappearing from services like Disney+.

The debate suggests Pirate Bay remains relevant to users who want reliable access and media preservation.
