Correct, It is not a price issue, for me (Linux user) I can pay for legal site and watch in shitty quality, or pay for "alternative" distributors which not only have better quality but also have more content.

And I pay for multiple more-or-less shady services, so in turn I pay more than some of my friends that use only one service and periodically switch to another.

I want a service that "just work", not shitty ones that I need to look for the content I want to watch on multiple services and even then get idiotic region locked or ass quality.
