On: For Cinephiles, Netflix Is Less and Less an Option

I guess my question to you is why do you feel bad about it?

And my original question was, why do others not only feel no remorse about it, but actually seem to feel entitled to do it?

Because in market societies, we have all been trained since birth to find the goods and services we want at the lowest possible price in the market. I feel entitled to buying Wrigley's Doublemint gum for 75 cents instead of 2 bucks, because it's readily available at that price. In this case the price of movies is zero, so people feel entitled to that price.
