Generally it's agreed the best way to stop piracy is by offering a more convenient alternative. I generally for example don't pirate video games available on Steam. With streaming services being so disjoint and expensive now I've gone back to pirating, at least with cable you can bundle channels.
Gabe Newall said himself that piracy is never a price problem, but a service problem.
