It doesn’t matter what people on the internet think or what you think, it matters what your partner thinks. When you only get to enjoy it by yourself are you talking about watching or listening to something? If so, and your partner is implacable about piracy, then just treat the cost of buying or renting media the cost of a date night. It’s most likely worth it to enjoy those things together.
What does your partner dislike about piracy? There’s lots to be weirded out by, the internet culture exposure, often times the quality, the abnormalcy of the experience, the implication that you can’t afford to pay for media, just to name a few.
Talk to your partner and try to accommodate their concerns instead of asking the internet how to weasel your way past them.
