You actually have to support the creators however THEY want if you want access, not however YOU want. I suspect you're not actually supporting all the creators of the things you watch via piracy!
This perspective has been beaten down to death but, just so you know, whenever you went to see a movie at friend's house, you also didn't contribute and were in fact pirating the content.
Creators are often happy that their art is being watched regardless of the source and whether they are making money from it.

Its the money behind them that cares about restricting access to bleed every penny they can out of it.
