Who is claiming that using a streaming site is piracy? No one is saying that lol

What the guy was saying is that circumventing payment to watch a movie = pirating, and it seems like you're saying that's not the case. It seems you're saying that people saying "pirating" are referring circumventing payment and distributing, which is not at all what the majority of people mean by pirating.

Pirating != distribution for the vast majority of how people use that word - it means consuming the media without paying for it.

literally OP:

> "watch free movies online" and find a site streaming bad DVD rips
