I watch a film every-night so time watching films is quite a lot...
Yes, I stream films via Netflix and/or Sky. Never illegally online because I'm scared it will mess up my Mac.
Personally Piracy doesn't affect me and it's not like I take advantage of Piracy, so really as a naturally selfish human I couldn't care less. However, I know this is a big problem in the film industry and loses a lot of potential money and ruins an art.

Conclusion: Due to technology advances the most common way to watch movies in the class are streaming them to some kind of device, wether it be an Xbox, Laptop or Phone. No one in the class except Sir actually cares about Piracy despite knowing it is wrong, they don't feel as if it is a real law made to be upheld. Majority of the class like Action. The class doesn't have that much interest in the cinema so visits aren't that regular.
