I think the total cost for me would’ve probably been like $5000 (USD) at least. Like at least 100 movies. 150 TV shows, 50 games.

    Hi FBI. I will just say 5000 seems crazy low though, especially if you’re assuming a movie is $20-$30 and a game is like $10-$80. Dunno how you’d calculate tv shows but dvd/bluray seasons/box sets can get real expensive fast.

      Idk how to calculate that stuff, I just use the bureau’s Black Card and write it off as required expenses. What do I need GTA V for FBI work? Its not a Video Game, its a field operation simulator.

      (But seriously tho: I’ve never paid for a movie ticket so I’m just randomly googling and doing a rough estimate)

        Oh yeah idk, thats the problem with those estimates is people don’t usually buy everything at full price, they rent or wait for sales or subscribe to a streaming service or gamepass, so even if you assume pepple would have bought everything they pirate, how do you assign a value to it. Like i wasn’t even thinking about movie tickets, i was thinking like 20 or 30 bucks for a bluray. Idk how much they are because i haven’t bought any in ages though lol.
