  The same way we did before streaming…? Trusted reviews. Gut instinct. That sorta thing. You take a chance and go with it. I still do it with music hard copies. Sometimes I’ve never even heard of the artist I’m buying, I just like the artwork, or someone in the store will say something about it. I pirate a lot myself, been on some forums for near on 2 decades now, a lot of the people I know on them still buy media. I mean, it’s kinda like going out to eat, you don’t always get a winner every time, but the hits usually outweigh the misses.

  Nope. Only on the grey market. To be fair, most grey market sellers if it do have a fairly robust refund set up cos Australian law dictates they must. But some of them will make you feel like you’re trying to get blood from a stone if something goes wrong…
